[quote=Anonymous] Would you like to mention, OP, what hourly rates (or fees), you bill your clients, when you do work? I suspect what you charge for your services has a significant built-in buffer to absorb your added costs of being self-employed, such as taxes, insurance, and other additional fees. Plus your varied work schedule. Please don't make the GRAVE error of penny-pinching the nanny's meager wages, just because you don't get the same "benefits" that she expects. If you manage to retain the same nanny for more than six months, you should count your blessings, and compensate your child's nanny accordingly. That should be your primary concern here, not your gross fear of overpaying the nanny. Revolving-door primary caregivers cause enormous damage to the development of a young child. Hence, the poor reputation of high-turnover daycare workers. [/quote]
