[quote=Anonymous]Yep, usually the hourly rate quoted is the average, not the base rate. From everything I have read, 15-18 is the range for a one child nanny in dc. However, with more hours you might be able to be on the lower end of that. We found that nannies think in terms of their weekly "salary" rather than their hourly base rate + overtime. So decide on the weekly amount you want to offer, and work backwards from there to calculate the base + ot rates. This means that you will be effectively guaranteeing her a number of hours per week, so in her mind it is the same thing as a salary. And I agree with the pp who said to find a nanny close by. Our nanny is great, but I worry about her getting burned out with her long commute.[/quote]
