[quote=Anonymous][quote]I personally don't know any live-in nannies who accepted more than a $1/hr cut in their rate as an exchange for living in - it actually isn't a perk to live with your bosses, so don't get too carried away trying to reduce salary or I expect you'll be disappointed in the response. Live-in tends to be ideal for split-shift schedules or jobs that require early morning starts (5 or 6am), but for a standard position many nannies will prefer to live out.[/quote] It's cute that you want to paint a live in position as something a nanny has to endure because free rent isn't a perk. If you are so put out by the idea of living in, don't apply for such jobs. The fact is, living in and the rent stipend it affords is very attractive to many professional nannies. Families should research the market rate of their accommodations and prorate the hourly rate for the offer for a potential live in nanny. It is part of a total compensation package.[/quote]
