[quote=Anonymous]Hello op! I’m a nanny who usually only works 3:30-6 or 7pm. Those are prime hours, so I’m paid 40hrs a week guaranteed, $35/hr, with mileage and benefits. I do childcare and make all meals for the family. Because I’m paid full time hours, I’m also available on sick days and when the kids are off school. What is your plan for no school days and summer breaks? I don’t think you’re going to be able to find someone at that low rate, because most nannies 1) don’t want to clean and 2) don’t think it’s a perk to live with their boss. If my boss asked me to do this same job and live in, I would increase my rate to $50/hr for the loss of privacy. Please reconsider. You got lucky the first time, with someone actually wanting this (bad) job. Next time you might not be so lucky. There’s a reason people apply to low paying/bad jobs, and it’s because they’re not able to get a good job. Do want this type of person caring for your children? Living in your home? Rent out your basement, hire an afterschool nanny for $30/hr, and clean your own house.[/quote]
