[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree w immediate PP ... there are a few bad eggs on this board that insist newborn rates start at $25, and then conversely, a few bad eggs on the employer side that claim that rates start at $15.  As you imagine, the truth lies in between ... certainly you can pay 25 or more, or 15 ... but those jobs tend to be the outliers.  Shares you should note are a bit higher ... was speaking to one of our old nannies and she just landed a share job for $24/hour pre-taxes (she's not U.S. born, 25 plus years of experience, great references, no formal higher ed). FWIW, when we employed her a few years ago for one child, we paid ~$19.  She was loving and fabulous ... I truly believe that degrees/U.S.-born/etc makes no difference for infant care so long as the caregiver can communicate well with the parents and speak/read/interact intelligently the child ...

Thank you for agreeing with me. But you also made it sound like you did not agree with $25/hr in the body of your post. You are a little confusing.[/quote]
