[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on the agency, nanny's experience and which additional tasks you expect the nanny to do. Hourly rate for one child could be anywhere from $15-25. No, it's not too early to put feelers out through an agency. Keep in mind that most nannies are available in the ffall when their charges enter pre-k or kindergarten, so your options will be much slimmer in january. If you can swing it, you might have better luck by hiring the nanny to start and help get the nursery around the week before you are due.[/quote] Typical bad agency advice. Or did you miss that OP doesn't need a nanny until Dec/Jan?[/quote] I am a nanny, and I firmly believe that agencies are a waste of money. With that said, Op is a ftm, and her first gut instinct is agency over doing the legwork herself. So, yes, I recommended that she get as much help from the nanny as possible, because the nanny won't be overwhelmed with the child.[/quote]
