[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She sounds like a housekeeper. They often get $25. per hour.[/quote]

This.
I'm confused the children are in school.
You will be home with the baby.
Doing laundry and housecleaning is not a nanny that's a housekeeper. They typically make a minimum of  $25 an hour.

More details of the job may help.[/quote]

If they come in once a week they may get $25 for the day, but as a daily full-time gig I would pay more like $10 hourly or $80 a day for house care and occasional help with the kids.[/quote]

This is what I pay too.  I live in a small blue-collar town where most people work factory jobs for minimum wage.  $10 is a couple of dollars above minimum wage, and the environment in my home is nice, the work hours are flexible and guaranteed, and I offer a reasonable number of sick days and vacation days.  I literally had almost 100 people respond to a newspaper ad that ran for 3 days for this job.

Obviously, from reading this, that is not what people pay in DC, but just like $25/hr is reasonable in some areas, $10/hr is reasonable in others.
