[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for the responses. She NETS $14/hour, which is $2 higher than she'd make through an agency and MUCH higher than other families I know who employ a nanny.  There is one family that pays more but that's because they're busy physicians and their nanny works crazy hours and is on call.  We known a nanny in common and apparently she is thrilled with the perks and feels the pay is fair but thinks her only responsibilities shoud be to care for the kids, wants me to lay their clothes out to save her time, etc., and feels we shoud be more flexible in some of the duties (for example,, she wants to give them their bath in the downstairs guest bath because its easier and I've asked that she bathe them in their bathroom as I like to keep the downstairs uncluttered in case we have visitors,  she's upset we didn't buy a $150 potty stool because now she has to watch them as they potty, etc).  She doesn't know I know this.  Anyway $14/net hour may be low for the DC NVA area but it's VERY competitive here.  More than the money I'm ticked about the complaining and passive aggressive behavior and tired of having to discuss it with her[/quote]
