[quote=Anonymous]I wish boston had a forum like this, DC is so lucky. 
I guess I'm more concerned about approaching the second family since I wasn't going to drop their rate and wanted a justifiable reason why not.

Here are average boston rates:
(I've researched daycare)

One child-$15-20
Two children- $17-20
Nanny share (2kids)- $18-22
Home daycare- $200-350 per child a week
Center- 400-500 per child a week

I should add that the rates for nannies are pretty steady for even non native English speakers who can't drive. Very few of them make less than $15. The higher end is what nannies with over 5yrs experience, college education and amazing references receive. I fall somewhere in between with 8yrs full time experience, excellent references, an almost completed BA in early intervention plus extra certifications in other areas like children's yoga, CNA

I am fully prepared to help the family search for a new nanny or daycare if they can't afford my rate but I think my rate is in between a center and nanny for two, probably the best option compared to a home daycare. I won't be opposed to cutting hours drastically either if they could manage it.[/quote]
