[quote=Anonymous]No OP $17 is perfectly reasonable and actually higher end. When you communicate politely that $17 is your highest offer, the nanny will probably accept $17. There is nothing wrong with the negotiating and I would not hold it against her that she tried to negotiate. Don't keep adding perks, you will want to give these out later for retention and general happiness. I don't think a big list of perks makes a difference but just turns them into entitlements rather than something is appreciated and seen as a reward for good performance later on. We were really surprised when nannies who had been asking for $17-$18 came back saying that they would accept $15 an hour. We politely told them that we only planned to offer $15 and just assumed that we would all move on. Every single one came back saying she would accept $15. [/quote]
