nobody sane would work for $32 in a share when they can get 28-30 for one baby. $32 is SO underpaid.

I live in SoCal.

For one child the low end is $20-22/HR - mostly those just starting out w/little to zero childcare experience.

The higher end would begin at $25/HR and go up due to number of children, household responsibilities and of course experience.

Hope this helps!

Most nannies want 40 guaranteed hours.

I'd say the current competitive range is $26-$32 for your own nanny (1-2 kids) and $30-$35 for a share.


We are at $35 for 2 kids, and she's dropping hints about an increase. We also guarantee her more hours than we use most weeks.

What are you paying for and for how many kids? We will guarantee 35 hours per week, FWIW.
