If a nanny can sleep on the job, than no more than $18/hr.

Um, have you ever been a night nanny? Do you have any experience with them at all? $18/hr for a night nanny will get you the bottom of the barrel if even that...

Well, no. If the nanny is simply a night nanny and not a night nurse, then $25/hr is way too high.

Does she get to sleep between feedings? It's only for six hours? Is she only feeding or giving specialized meds?

If she is just a night nanny, $18-20/hr, tops, for one child.

You can certainly charge anything you want.

We currently have a night nanny for our newborn twins 3 nts/wk. she washes bottles and sometimes pump parts but does little else. I don't think she sleeps. We hired her through an agency, 9 hrs/nt, $28/hr. Hush Little Baby is the agency

My friend was a night nanny in New Jersey (outside Rutgers) and charge $25/hr. She would clean bottles/tidy up some things, but otherwise she was welcome to nap on their futon, watch TV, or do homework until the baby woke up, which she said was every 2-3 hours. She also got up with baby in the morning and fed her/changed her etc.

SIL is a ped. nurse in the MetroWest area of Boston. She works as a night nurse for a baby with medical needs (O2, meds, and another monitoring machine) and makes $35 an hour. She however does not sleep as she is usually monitoring the baby or preparing things for the parents.

If she can sleep, she legally does NOT need to be paid for those hours. We have a 24hr nanny, and we don't pay her for 8hrs because she can usually sleep those hours, unless our baby wakes up. But he only usually wakes up for a few minutes to take a bottle. We pay our nanny $20 an hour for 16 hrs a day. The great thing, it's legal!

Outsourced parenting at its finest.

Why poor kid/nanny? $20 is an excellent wage for one child. If its Monday- Friday, Nanny is pulling in over 100k!!! Nanny probably is sleeping very comfortably making that wage. Kid is should also be happy having taking great care of them 24hrs a day! And it's not MB's problem that the law says its perfectly legal not to pay for 8hrs of sleeping time.

Poor kid - being raised by a 24hr nanny. Kids need their parents, and if you're not even bonding with your baby during that 3am feeding, yeah, I'm going to feel sorry for him/her.

Poor nanny - not being paid for 8 hours even though the baby "sometimes wakes her up but only for a bottle." You want me to wake up in the middle of my night and feed a baby? I'm charging hourly for that. Total BS.
