[quote=Anonymous]I am in the process of starting a nanny share with one other family and need some guidance on standard rates for the area.

There will be two infants, one approximately 12 weeks and the other 8 weeks. We are looking for them to come to a home in Wheaton, Monday-Thursday, for approximately 40-44 hours over the four days.

Our plan is to offer $10/hour per family. We are also planning on using a third party company to handle paychecks and taxes, so the nanny's take-home rate would be closer to $16/hour rather than $20, after taxes. We are paying for federal holidays, and are also open to two weeks of paid vacation, and several sick days (maybe 3-5?).

We are not asking them to do much house work, aside from possibly cleaning bottles.

Does this seem like a reasonable rate for the area? With one nanny we interviewed, we were open to allowing her to bring her daughter over once she gets out of school (which is right down the street), but she seemed to expect a higher pay rate.

Any suggestions or advice regarding your experience with infant nanny shares and pay rates is greatly appreciated!![/quote]
