[quote=Anonymous]I have been a nanny for 10 years and have fairly high rates for the area I live. I live in a very small neighborhood where everyone makes an effort to be friendly. It's also a fairly nice neighborhood. My neighbor asked me to watch one or two of his kids a couple weeks ago but I was unavailable that day. I know they don't have a ton of money and would likely be shocked by my rates. I really like the family, especially the kids! I also love the closeness of this neighborhood and want to be neighborly. My thought is to lower my rate to $15/hr for them, but my guess is that they will still be surprised by that. What would you do? Like I said, I want to be neighborly, but this is my profession. It feels similar to asking a SAHM in the neighborhood to watch your kids. Any thoughts?[/quote]
