[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guaranteed pay, 2 weeks paid vacation, one of her choosing and one of yours. 5 paid sick/personal days a year. And please don't think you can discount her pay because one of your kids is in school. There will be school holidays/early release/sick days and summer vacation. [/quote] The above are good benefits. I would also include paid holidays that you get off (in other words, not all federal holidays unless you get them all off. This way you avoid the Columbus Day Issue. Spell out all the holidays in your contract) and I think gas reimbursement at the IRS rate is essential. Expect to pay $20/hr in Rockville. I would not include health insurance benefits the first year but save it for a merit raise as you are already paying a good hourly rate and you don't want to price yourself out of nanny in the first few years unless you don't expect to employ a nanny longterm.[/quote]
