[quote=Anonymous]You can ask for whatever you think you deserve, but if people can find someone adequate to do the job for less, they aren't going to pay your rate. The extra $5 per hour that you are asking comes out to 10k per year not including overtime. Since I'm taxed on my money before I pay you, I need to make an extra 17k per year to pay you that extra $5 per hour. Personally I didn't want an older nanny for my kids. I wanted someone young and energetic, and from experience my kids bond better with younger caregivers. I also didn't care about a degree. Taking care of kids requires a lot of patience, but it's not rocket science. Having some prior nannying experience with same aged kids was more important than a degree. Our favorite nanny ever had a degree in math. [/quote]
