[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I asked in the nanny section, but wanted to see opinions here Sorry if this long. 
Back in 2012 we hired a nanny to care for our first child. 
She was great. She didn't do the household stuff some of my friends nannies do , but she was great with our daughter. 
We let her go after a year, because my husband was able to work from home and we were able to use my mom and sister as back up. 
Fast forward to now I am pregnant with twin boys due in late March.

We are going to need regular help when the twins arrive.

I know for a fact our former nanny is looking for a job. 
I also know she has experience caring for infant twins.

Would it be strange to call her up and see if she would be interested in being our nanny again?

I'm a little unsure of her interest we have only seen her 3 times in the last year, our last two visits she cancelled.
On the other hand she is friends with us on FB and occasionally comments on stuff related to our daughter and has offered to babysit for us whenever.

We paid her a little over $18 last time around so with taxes she took home around $ 550 a week.

If we do ask her back is that rate OK?

That rate is NOT ok.  $550/week for a toddler AND newborn twins?  Good luck with that.[/quote]
