[quote=Anonymous]So you're going to have THREE families involved in the share? 1) I'm not sure if that's legal - it may be, but there is a limit on how many unrelated children someone can look after without it being considered an in-home daycare; typically shares with more than two children consist of at least two siblings. Check your local laws on that front before moving forward. 2) A three-family share is, in my opinion, much different from a three-child share and warrants a much higher increase in salary. While I would suggest $22-23/hr if one of the existing members were having a new baby, the addition of an entirely new family - new set of parents to navigate, more schedules to accommodate, more strollers/playpens/cribs to manage and move around, etc. - I would think $25-26/hr would be the minimum reasonable rate to offer here, particularly for a nanny who offers you the kind of flexibility (sundays?!) you've described. You aren't likely to hit that jackpot very often.[/quote]
