[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On here.  Thank you for all the insight.  Regarding people saying that's a huge raise in just a couple months time...this is not the case.  There will be 7-8 months between my anniversary and MB returning to work after leave.

Actually, I'm beginning to wonder about my 2nd year.  I would be due for my 2nd yearly review 4 months after the new baby raise.  Would it be out of line to expect $1 at each event bringing me to $18/hour by my 2nd anniversary?

Yes. It would be out of line. 3 raises in the span of a year? At close to 15% each? [/quote]

Timeline that OP laid out:
1st year's review: +$1
new baby raise at end of mom's maternity leave (in 7-8 months): +$1
2nd year's review: +$1

Given that OP started at $15/hour, that sounds quite reasonable to me.  She's been with them for a year, so she gets $16/hour until the end of mom's maternity leave.  She could ask that she get $17/hour when the baby is born, because there's no doubt that she'll be dealing with mom, baby and the toddler during maternity leave; however, OP proposed $17 at the end of maternity leave, which is wonderful for the family.  Second year raise to $18/hour certainly seems reasonable to me, she'll be starting her third year with the family.[/quote]
