[quote=Anonymous]I was a summer nanny throughout college. I started out making $10/hr, by the time I graduated (last year) I was at $15/hr, plus gas reimbursement for driving the kids around in my car. I worked for different families each summer (though have kept in touch with a few for casual babysitting), and found them all primarily through Care.com. I don't think not needing 40/hrs will be a big detriment to college aged nannies. Some years I was aggressively saving towards a goal (studying abroad) and would only look at the longer hour FT jobs, but other years I was happy with 30-35 hrs a week as that gave me time to enjoy my summer home. I would strongly recommend guaranteeing a weekly rate to your nanny regardless of any long weekends, doctors appointments, etc. you might have planned. It goes a long way to engendering good will between you both. Paying for any time the nanny requests off is generally unnecessary though.[/quote]
