[quote=Anonymous]Just a thought: you need to be very clear when negotiating pay to explain what it means to be gross or net.  I've had a number of candidates express confusion over the impact of these terms on what they're getting paid.  So it may be best to actually explain the potential impact on the pay if you're negotiating gross.  For instance, if you're talking average full-time Nanny salary in the DC area, the difference can be well over a hundred a week.  While it's true that most employment relationships discuss salary in gross terms, many Nannies just want to know the bottom line and unless you're clear, could be surprised by the difference in their take home.

I know what I paid my last Nanny, and what her pay stub said in terms of the difference between her weekly salary on a gross v. net basis (I use a payroll service).  When I'm negotiating with a new Nanny, I sometimes refer to the difference in the last Nanny's pay to be sure we're on the same page in negotiating pay.
