[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I can see how some may balk at paying a nanny $21/hr when the kids are in school most of the time. However, up until this year, that wasn't the case, and we weren't about to cut her pay. That probably makes us soft employers, but it is worth it to us to keep a stable envirmonment for our children. So our nanny took on additional duties, like grocery shopping, Costco runs, Goodwill dropoffs, library returns, taking the cars in for service and the parent laundry. She is fabulous and is always offering to pitch in. She also volunteers in my son's class once morning a week. Today, she texted me to ask if she could wrap the gifts for a birthday party this weekend. She has definitely made our lives easier this year. My concern is that I can't justify salary increases in the future, but I do want her to feel valued. It's tough to max out in salary, but I suppose that happens in any field. Thanks for the helpful replies.[/quote]
