[quote=Anonymous]I don't see why nannies think they should may more than whatever anyone pays an evening sitter. If you only hire an evening sitter for a few hours every few months its not a big deal to pay then 10-12-15..it really doesn't matter that much to employers. If you are hiring someone for 45-50 hours a week, 52 weeks a year, the average rate matters a lot as you are talking about differences of thousands of dollars. The DC market is $12-$15 average and no where near $20-$30 as one nanny desperately hopes you will believe. Every average $1 per hour costs the employer $2,860 (factoring in 10%/$260 for taxes, etc). If you hire a nanny for an extra $3 more than the market or other qualified candidates then you just wasted $8,580 dollars. Its financially irresponsible to over pay for something at this level unless you have lots of discretionary wealth. [/quote]
