I would use a center. Much better set up than a nanny for 3 babies. And I say that as someone who used a nanny.

I would take care of them for $45/hour.

Wow. Congrats on your pregnancy and best of luck!

Triplets!! $45/hr

I only had twins- but with triplets you will need more than one nanny. You will see why once your babies arrive!! Pay generously.

Triplets: I would use several part time. There is s book about a couple who did. Old now but still useful. Congrats & good luck !

Thanks so much all!

You will need more than one nanny. I would not trust one nanny to be able to handle three. And don't be cheap.

Start with a full time nanny as soon as you are home from the hospital. At least $30/hour. Maybe $35.

Where is the best place to find a qualified nanny for triplets?

You may find that. Join the twin/triplet organizations. That would be best. Other families may be phasing out the nanny.

It may be harder to find someone qualified who would be willing to do it part time for the first few months. Might be easier to start at full-time from the beginning— you’ll need the help anyway.

Congratulations! At least $30/hr for a competent professional nanny for your three babies.

You should be on the ‘parent with multiples’ group such as https://mcpom.org/

Hi, I'm having Triplets late this summer. While I won't go back to work until November, I'd like to start a triplet nanny part time September - November alongside me and my husband to get to know the family and help out, and then eventually full time December 2019 - all of 2020. Do any of you have experience with multiples childcare? What would be your guess for a fair hourly or annual salary for a nanny with infant triplets (or is it even possible for one person?). How are nannies usually paid and do you provide other benefits? Other alternatives welcome too - I just assumed a nanny would be cheaper given 3 kids in childcare, but please correct my assumption if that's wrong.

Thank you!!
