[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We could use a little more information to help. How many hours do you work? Did they need "flexibility " when they hired you? Do you wash their clothing as well (hopefully not!)?  An estimate of what you make? Are you paid legally? How many kids? Ages? All/any in school? Any other pertinent information?

You are doing much more than a typical nanny, but are not far outside he realm of the kids are in school. Though I wouldn't be washing their sheets, gross. [/quote]

I can see how I've been confusing-sorry! I do the whole families laundry, all their beds and cook dinner for the whole family (3 meals a day). Yes they needed "flexibility" when they hired me, but I feel as though they have taken advantage of that. If they come home on time I make just over $20 an hour, if they come home 30 min later I get paid just over $19 an hour. Both kids are in school, so I have time to do some stuff before I grab them. I am paid legally and through Breedlove. There's 2 kids.

So I was friends with them before I started (big mistake I know) so they took another negotiation I had with another family to base how much I would be paid. However, I know their previous nanny (who was awful by the way) made close to $24 an hour and was paid for longer hours and didn't do any of the housework. I'm not a money grabbing nanny, I do the jobs I want to do instead of what is going to pay me more money, but I think I deserve more than the $19 they've been paying me because they don't come home on time. So I'm just trying to figure out how much of a raise I can ask for in 1 sitting. (I've already asked for the raise but they won't give be a no. they want me to give theme a no.)[/quote]

To be honest I think $20/hr is more than fair. Not sure how much you are trying to squeeze out of them, you said your not a money grabbing nanny but idk.[/quote]
No, $20/hr is clearly insufficient for housekeeping and family chef.

You're out of touch with reality.
