[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a house cleaner who does a full 8 hour day at our house. She's paid the same rate our nanny was. The reasons are similar to what has been mentioned. She doesn't have any unpaid time that day getting from job to job. We also guarentee her time and give her some PTO. Plus, if she were doing two to three houses, shed be doing much more of the heavy physical cleaning tasks, whereas at our job she has some downtime, and time with lighter tasks ( like folding laundry)[/quote] You're contradicting yourself. You are saying how much harder the cleaning job is, yet you pay her the same as the nanny? [/quote] No, I'm saying that cleaning a house entails some physically difficult work. To repeat that for several houses in one day would be much more difficult than mixing up the physically hard work (cleaning floors, scrubbing toilets) with physically easier tasks (sitting and ironing in front of the tv, for example)[/quote]
