The same you pay for a winter nanny!

If she is a certified teacher and is used to teaching summer school, her hourly rate is likely $25 (very low end) or as much as $50 an hour. I'm a teacher with an MA and about 15 years of experience. I get $54/hour working at an enrichment center

Assuming you are paying cash, so you pay daily, weekly?

YES. Absolutely.
We pay $20/hour for 40 hours a week, and we also pay health insurance ($300/mo). She is encouraged to have breakfast, lunch, coffee, snacks at our place (we buy stuff we know she likes/wants and she can make requests), which helps her cut down on expenses and saves her time in the morning and evening (doesn't have to pack her lunch or buy it). We are also very generous with time off: 2 weeks her choice and 3 weeks our choice, which she knows in advance (one week for Thanksgiving, and two weeks for Christmas). This is for two kids. She's happy, we're happy.
PS I should say one of the kids is part time since he's in pre-K and the other is a baby (1 y.o.). She doesn't do drop off or pickup for the older kid, we do that.
You have other things going for you that make a lower wage fine.
This is for a SUMMER nanny. No week at Thanksgiving, no two weeks at Christmas, no diapers, etc.)

Exactly this. I'm going to cry when she goes back to school. I hope she goes, but I will cry.

What do you do for weeks that she’s off of her choice?
I work from home and MIL helps out. MIL is not really a viable childcare provider otherwise, but for a few times a year it's fine.
