Seeing how this is a share and not a single family, I absolutely would request at least a $4 dollar raise. You won't be pricing them out of a share and it's definitely a way better deal then daycare for two children. Plus there is no way in hell they will find a competent nanny for two children for less than $11.50 each family.
I think the people who are responding are forgetting this a share not a single family. To be honest OP, I absolutely wouldn't back down from a $4 raise. You can easily find another nanny share paying $20 per hour for two children and not have to deal with the added workload of 2extra infants. [/quote
First, it's quite easy to find a competent share nanny for two children for under $23/hr.
Second, where are you getting the two infants thing? It's just one infant being added to the OP's load.
oh snap, please disregard my orginal post, I completely got this OP confused with the other OP from another post about having a share with four children. There have been so many of these lately.
OP, Yea $4 from one family is a lot if your only adding a third for a few months especially if you believe the rate will stay after the older child goes to preschool.
