From taking care of kids to running errands and light houskeeping

[Anonymous]

I just would like to ask some inputs about hourly rates. I was a nanny for a family for 2 years full time. Then from September, when all the kids went to school they changed the job to part time. 25 hours/week. I tried to find a new job for the morning but couldn't find anything really I liked. I didn't want to change my part time position because I love the kids. At the same time I knew I can't last too long only working part time job. One day one of the agency called me about a full time job. I met the family and we figured we are a pretty good match. After a few days thinking I gave my notice to the family. But since I work the 40 hours mainly in the afternoon and evening to the new family my old family asked me to work for them a few mornings/week. Getting ready the kids to the school, grocery shopping and laundry and a little pick up after the kids what I did on the daily basic. It would be about 10-12 hours. The job is in northern New Jersey. How much should I charge per hour? Thank you for any answers.

Ask the agency what the family is offering. You won't get the job if its way above their range

I'd tell them you first need a week or two to see how much extra energy you have after your new FT job. If you still want an early morning job, tell them $24/hr. And you tell them what you want to do.

$19/hr sounds good. You could bump up to $20/hr, but the job really isn't worth more than that.

Are you sure you have the energy for this extra job, OP?

I always work 50-60 hours a week

14:01. I already agreed about my hourly rate with my new family. My question was related to my old job who offered me part time job in the morning
