[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously you could ask.  But I would not give you an increase based on your not bringing your child with you!  You are basically saying that you short-changed your employers when your child was with you and now expect an increase due to the fact that you are no longer short-changing them!

If I were in your position I would expect an annual $1 increase and $1 for the new baby.  [/quote]

Thank you for responding!  I don't feel, nor do my employers, that they were being shortchanged with my child coming.  We were treating it like a share type situation, and I took a paycut almost equal to the cost of FT home daycare to be able to bring my toddler.  If it is no longer a share, shouldn't I be able to expect a higher base rate?  I know for a fact, they were expecting to pay more per hour for a nanny without a child and I told them I was looking for $15 for being able to bring my child.  They know that they got a big discount on a nanny with my qualifications by allowing me to bring my child.  If they were to go out and hire a new nanny with my exact qualifications without a child and for the current situation, they could expect to pay at least $20/hour.  So even if I ask for $18-$19, they are still getting a discount.[/quote]
