[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An 11% raise is a huge bump and unlikely. It never hurts to ask. Are you sure about the average rate in your area? $20-$25 is nowhere near the standard rate for one baby in DC. You must be in another city. [/quote] Thank you for your response. Yes, I am in Los Angeles - and I'm sure that $20-$25 is the going rate for a nanny with my education and experience. I should have asked for $20 initially - that was my mistake. And it does hurt to ask - both the parents and I are very sensitive about things like this. They always seem embarrassed when they hand me my pay check! And I'm a total wimp. I'm afraid it will taint our relationship if they deny the 11% increase. [/quote]
