[quote=Anonymous]Where you live, how many kids, what responsibilities you will give to the nanny, etc. all play a big role in deciding cost.

I am a mom of four and have had 3 nannies throughout the years but have never paid under $15 for one child. The pay has varied depending on the number of kids I have the nanny caring for but that has been the lowest for a single child. The nanny has never been responsible for more than two children and I pay $20 at that point.

Yes, nannies are expensive. This seems to be the norm price and though I've heard of people getting nannies under $10 I feel that either the parents are exaggerating about what they are paying or they have found very low quality nannies. While I don't need a super expensive nanny with crazy qualifications, I feel that $15 for a reliable, responsible nanny is a reasonable price. Nannies aren't a right and you pay a nanny more than other childcare because you get one on one care in your own home, which I think is irreplaceable. If you're looking for cheaper options either look for a daycare or don't have as many children[/quote]
