Hi!

I worked as a FT nanny/house manager and earned $30/hr for FT guaranteed hours. It was a combination of house management, housekeeping, and child care. For PT work, I'd also be looking for guaranteed hours and would likely want to earn a bit more, so something around $35/hr. However, I have 10+years experience. When I first started out, I earned $20-$25/hr for similar tasks. Hope it helps and good luck with your search!

This is 2018 not 1975,! For what you want, $50/hr minimum and, more likely, a lot higher. You cannot afford such a person.

Housekeepers are not making 50 bucks an hour to start. Just stop.

You want a lot of things for $15 an hour and eve for $20 hour. You might find someone for $25 an hour since you only offer part time.
