[quote=Anonymous]OP, are you in the DC area? I'm not and I think reading forums like this made me think that everything discussed on here (yearly raises, benefits, lots of PTO... Etc) were standard and was disappointed when I didn't receive them. However in live in the PA suburbs and I've realized that employing a nanny isn't as common here so there isn't really any "standards". The last two families I worked for we just came up with what worked best for all involved. Would I like benefits, a contract and a raise? Of course! But I have to be competitive and if I had insisted on all of that they probably would've have gone with someone else who was asking for less. I really like the family I currently work for, they pay me a fair rate and are generous in other ways. So I've learned to pick my battles because its better than no job or a job that I hate going to everyday. [/quote]
