| Hi everyone! Could you please give me some advice? I’m wondering if $25/hr for one child is a fair rate for a nanny with 10 years of experience. The position doesn’t include benefits, except for federal holidays. Thanks so much! |

Hi OP!
Nanny here - - I would say it is a decent starting hourly rate - - decent but not that extraordinary. I would also factor in age/no.# of children, duties/responsibilities, location, etc. Hope this helps!

I just reread your posting OP that you had mentioned one child.
So yes, I will say for one child the rate is “decent.” |

| it depends where you live. It would be on low side for DMV but OK for other areas. |

| Try daycare. Nobody is working for $25hr with ten years of experience and no benefits. Standard benefits for a nanny are two weeks PTO 3-5 sicks days |

I think that you're not going to find someone with experience who's willing to work with no PTO/sick days at a minimum, no matter the cost.
$25 for one child might be doable with good PTO, but it's on the low end for DC. |

| Yes, they offer PTO, and it's located in the DC area. |

The post says no benefits aside from federal holidays. Is this part time or full time? That would be a factor too. |

| It is a full-time job, and PTO includes vacation time |

The rate is extremely low for DC and a career nanny with ten years of experience. Not everyone can afford a nanny and that’s ok
