[quote=Anonymous]This is an exceptionally good offer - I do not believe your PTO is low in any respect; she gets, essentially, a week of vacation, a week of sick days, and two weeks of bonus vacation when you're out of town (plus all fed holidays!) That's very appealing. As is the upfront offer to pay for training (something most nannies want but are uncomfortable requesting) and the offer to eat freely means she will feel very comfortable at your home. Health insurance really seals the deal and you will have TONS of applicants, so be prepared to wade through a lot of unsuitable candidates!

But can I ask, given your generous offer, why you don't want someone with any experience? Are you simply unconcerned with that or are you hoping the benefits package, being so high, would mean you could pay a lower rate to an inexperienced nanny?

I only ask because with that package you could easily find a nanny with 5+ years experience at $18-$20/hr. I mean, if the stars align you could probably find super nanny at that rate![/quote]
