[quote=webbkathy]OP you have gotten some good advice. The schedule is long, but not unheard of. I would be careful about hours and your proposed weekly pay rate. Remember as a live out your nanny is entitled to overtime - she gets regular hourly pay as a live in. Also as a live out she has commute time to/from that will make her day longer.

I assumed below that you are in DC - you can run these numbers at 4nannytaxes.com yourself if you live elsewhere.

It can be a matter of perception. Here are a few scenarios. And remember DC minimum wage increases another $1/hour July 1 2015!
