[quote=Anonymous]I am newly employed with a family that is great. I am paid market rate for my area and I do like the family. I have been babysitting ( date nights) for a couple with a newborn and they offered me a nanny positon. The position will start in 3 weeks when her maternity leave ends.

The hours and duties will be the same as my current job. I will receive the same benefits but the pay is a $3.00/hour increase. That totals out to an extra $9,000.00 per year. These people are great just like my current employers.

Normally I would turn the offer down but I could use the extra income. I will be entering grad school ( doctorate program) in two years and I may not be able to work FT. My goal is to save as much as I can within these two years so I don't have to work as much once I enter grad school.

Lastly, I know its a stretch for my current family to pay my salary and asking for more money is out of the question. This family can afford my salary easily.

I feel I am having a moral dilemma. I know its wrong to take a position after being there for so little for more money because a position is so much more. On the other hand, I have to worry about my future and look out whats best for me.

Now that I laid it out, what would you choose? [/quote]
