[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you’re wildly overestimating how much someone will pay for this set up. It’s basically a nanny share but with a very biased nanny favoring her own kids. Especially if you’re expecting “flexibility” in terms of schedule. I expect my daycare to be open all day every workday except federal holidays. [/quote]

This. It's basically an overcrowded nanny share with an inexperienced, heavily biased nanny. For me, those three things would be a hard no.

Its 3 kids. How is that overcrowded? I know people trying to split nanny shares between 3 sets of parents. That's called a pod lady and no - I'm not taking your 2-year-old and your 4-year-old for less than $500 a week.[/quote]

Then I wouldn’t take this deal. You want similar to normal nanny shares in the area. I’d of course rather have a nanny who isn’t only in it to care for her own kids, which I can have for the price. [/quote]

You can't have a nanny who is a former teacher with credentials at that price in this area during Covid-19 - trust me. The base price is $20/hr plus overtime for 1-2 toddlers or 1 newborn. If you're looking at 40 hours a week that's $800/wk plus PTO.  Some parents are going up to $22-$23/hr to get the good ones.[/quote]

You’re dating the base *for a share* is a total of $40/hr? Because no, it is not. And K-12 credentials don’t matter for my 2-4 yr old. You are an inexperienced nanny in this situation, not a highly desirable teacher like in a teaching pod situation. [/quote]

It clearly says the price for a nanny for up to 2 kids. Total price per hour. And you may not care about teaching credentials for a 2-4 yr old but other parents want a leg up for their kids reading and comprehension skills.

$25-$30/hr for someone versed in 'developmental milestones' - https://www.whitehousenannies.com/job/engaged-nanny-needed-for-active-1-year-old/

$25-$30/hr for nanny who can help with distance learning - https://www.whitehousenannies.com/job/nanny-needed-for-5-year-old-top-salary/
