[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a nanny quote me $25/hr recently, far above our budget. When I said so, she asked me if I could do $20. I could, but I didn't hire her because I figured she would always feel underpaid. So, OP, I guess I agree with you. But I suspect most people are willing to negotiate for the right job and right set of benefits.[/quote] If the nanny was already established at $25, I agree that she'd feel underpaid/undervalued at anything less than that, UNLESS you could compensate in some other way. That is key, PP. I have often been inspired to discount my fees, if the family offered some sort of fair "exchange," hence creativity can easily be a win-win. Always try to think outside the box. -OP[/quote]
