[quote=Anonymous]This is probably a dumb question, but we're looking to hire a mother's helper (so, not a full-time nanny and not someone who probably has anywhere near the experience level of a FT nanny), and I'm wondering how you deal with the issue of pay when interviewing candidates. Do I ask what their "rate" is, or do I not say anything about pay until I make an offer and then let them accept or counter offer? I want to pay a fair price but obviously also don't want to "overpay." Some of the people I'm interviewing have more experience than others, so they may have a standard rate and expectation more like a FT nanny, while others have less experience and are more starting out in the field (hence interest in a mother's helper position). Any thoughts on how people usually handle this? Sorry if this is a dumb question.[/quote]
