OP doesn’t have tons of terrific candidates. She has one good possibility, and is going to need to pay what that one candidate wants to earn.

Yes, and she wants part time, which is less attractive to most nannies and harder to staff than full time.

Personally, I don't think it's a question of price. To me, the question is whether this nanny would ever have all three children at the same time, and whether she can handle 2, let alone 3.
