[quote=Anonymous]We are looking for a new nanny, and I admit I've been kind of blown away by the er, aspirational rates I'm seeing potential candidates post and ask for on these sites. I spoke with an otherwise lovely young woman - age 26, with a Bachelor's degree and some very good experience who told me she simply could not consider watching my 2 year old full time and her 4 year old brother part time for less than $28/hour. We are in the DC area. She'd had some nannying experience and had done some work as a research assistant at a Montessori research project at a university, but seriously? $28 an hour at 26? We offer guaranteed pay, paid sick and vacation, overtime and the rest, plus $18/hour, which is in line with area standards based on our understanding. Where are these people getting these hourly rates from?[/quote]
