[quote=Anonymous]We gave $0.50/hour this year, which amounted to 3%. We started her at $17/hour for 2 kids (no errands, no housekeeping, very minimal cooking for kids only) which could be high-end or low-end depending on who's posting here. I love our nanny and think she is wonderful and would love to have given her $1/hour but my husband is a Fed and I just started a new job late last year which meant no raise for either of us. And we won't have a raise for the foreseeable future, so we just couldn't do it. However, we did offer an additional week of paid vacation and also upped her guaranteed hours (mostly in light of the fact that she does in fact work more hours than previously). I wanted to offer something we could actually afford. I don't know what we'll do for next year...[/quote]
