You should offer a standard of living increase, I personally think, since it is a lower end wage job and I don't want my nanny to be able to buy less than she did last year. However, the economy is such that the inflation will be super low this year and it would result in a very small raise (like 5 cents.)

The other reason why your nanny should get a raise is because of merit. Do you think she deserves a merit raise? Has she gone above and beyond her call of duty? Has she proved to be worth extra money than the value she proved to you the prior year? I think your answer is no, or little.

In any case, you should not feel that raises should be in $1 dollar increments.

If your nanny feels that she should get a $1 raise every year, and you are paying a competitive rate already, then she is mistaken about her expectations. Many, if not most nannies do not get a $1 raise every year.

Also, you should be weary of asking questions about pay on this bulletin board. There are a lot of angry nannies who feel they should be paid more and provide false information.[/quote]
