Nannies, what would your rate be for a three family share?

What makes it illegal? The number of families or the number of children? Would 2 families with 3 children be illegal in a share?

Wow, $45? I've heard $25. How did you calculate $45? Or do you know of a similar situation? Curious

$15 per family. Why on the world would OP accept $25 for three kids when she can get $25 for one child!?

This exactly. My minimum for one is $25.

Snort. That’s very high. I had friends who paid 16$/hr for their share (8$/kid). 20$/hr for 2 kids is more typical and I can’t inagine that a 3 way share would be more than 25$/hr.

Well since you’re snorting, I’m not surprised you and the ppl you know pay such extremely low wage. That nanny is an idiot. No smart (or legal) person would take $16/hr for a share. I passed on $20/hr for a share bc that’s ridiculously low too.

Once again, I do not argue. Try the lowest amount listed here and see who you can get and keep. I certainly think $40 to $45 is closer to the amount for s good, experienced nanny.

A three-family share is going to be a bigger hassle than a family with three kids. Three sets of parents to deal with and possibly three different locations. I suppose you could pay $8/hour each, but I doubt you get a very good nanny at that rate. I think you'd need to pay closer to $15/hour per family to get someone good.

We have three children in our nanny share, we gave her $33, we are renewing her contract end of May, of this year. She has 17 years of experience, and has been in a couple of shares before. She works 55 hours a week, we are in Westend DC.

oh, fantastic! And I assume you verified that it is indeed perfectly legal? I hadn't thought otherwise until someone else mentioned it above.

Yes it's legal. A couple of families do it in DC area.

I would personally charge $36, $12/hr/family. The nanny makes more in a share and you pay less.

I would take $33

[Anonymous]

I wouldn’t do three toddlers and dealing with three mothers for less than $45. $15 per child.

Geez, why don’t these parents send their kids to daycare!

In most locales, the number and age of the children combined with the number of families. I would suggest contacting osse to clarify.

It's clearly ILLEGAL.

Actually, I looked for a definition of nanny share, since a nanny share is exempted in DC from the recent push for education. However, I couldn’t find a definition, which is why I suggested OP call osse. Most people define a share as two children and two families, in the home of one or both of the families; the only question for legality is how osse defines nanny share.

I have heard of only one definition. The one you said...
