[quote=Anonymous]I have read so many different rates from various sources for Nannies.

As a mother I know you get what you pay for, as a professional Nanny I know what I am personally worth.

First as someone hiring a Nanny you NEED TO UNDERSTAND the prior sentence I just typed out. You get what you pay for. If you wish to hire someone to just sit around most of the time, (minimal direct contact/care for your child) then by all means pay them a low rate. If you are looking for quality care from someone with experience and education then you are going to pay them accordingly. Remember YOU are hiring someone to come into your home to help raise your child and teach them as well as help them develop physically, emotionally and mentally.

RATES BASED ON EXPERIENCE/AREA:

DC (In the city) Ranges from $15.00-$25.00 PER CHILD based on experience/education as well as age of the child. You pay more for infant care, usually.

Outside of the city (Suburbs of DC: Va/MD) Ranges anywhere from $10.00-$30.00 an hour per child. Again, it all depends on WHERE you live (cost of living etc) and the type of quality care you are looking for.

You should also be doing 90 day reviews with pay increase based on actual performance as well as benefits (paid vacation etc).

This is the MOST important job in the world. Treat it as such.[/quote]
