How much negotiation do I have to go through?

I say stand your ground.
Maybe back down a little bit, but for the most part not very much. Maybe ask for more benefits such as all access to their food, washing machines, etc.

If you back down too much, you will become resentful over time and everyone will lose in the end. Inc. the child.

This is really important for nannies. Know your worth.

YES, this is an old thread, but just as relevant as ever, like most threads on this site.
