[quote=Anonymous]Are you paying OT for the 10 hours over 40? It seems like you are just paying a flat hourly rate of $14 an hour which isn't right. You need to be paying overtime. It's the law.

If you paid $13 an hr for the first 40 that's $520
Time and a half for the 10 OT hours is $19.50 an hr which is $195 extra per week.
That's $715 gross.

Where are you coming up with $700 a week gross? The benefits seem reasonable, especially the paid vacation time and sick days. Very thoughtful to even factor in the holiday bonus.

Have you already found a nanny willing to work 50 hours a week for $700? I know I would never accept a job that expects light housekeeping (if time permits) for such a low hourly rate. I'd say look for college students but no student can work 50 hours a week and go to class, unless they only go to classes in the evening.

An experienced and qualified nanny will want more than $13 an hour, IMHO. Not saying you won't find anyone for this job but I don't think you are offering enough money.
