[quote=Anonymous]You should sit down and talk with your nanny. You are at the top of your market (I can't believe that you paid less in DC -- most of my friends in NYC pay in the $35/hour range). In any event, we pay $21 with two kids and light housekeeping/errand running while the kids are in school. If you paid $23 an hour, honestly, there isn't much room to go up. I agree with the previous posters that you should define responsibilities when the second child is born. Though it might not be a reduction in responsibilities. For example, in our household, we ask that laundry be done but only if the kids are asleep or in school. I'd much rather have a load of wet laundry left at the end of the day, or a pile in a basket then have my kids cooped up in the house while our nanny is folding laundry. I just ask that she remind me so that I don't leave wet laundry overnight. 1 week bonus is fine. [/quote]
