[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny's OT rate is $30/hr. I know she'd like to babysit for us more, but I only ask her when I need someone to do something that would be best with her familiarity and skills.

I have 3 other people I call, older teens or young college, who charge $15/hr, otherwise.[/quote]

So, you screw your nanny for 4-6 hours of OT, which comes to $90?  I would rather pay OT to someone I know will always put my children first than a teenager or college student who is just a warm body.  Pennywise and pound foolish.[/quote]

I'm glad you have a extra $100 lying around every few weeks. That's not chump change for us. Not to mention, what is going to happen to my kids while I'm out? I'm just not that paranoid, either. The teens I hire are smart and responsible, and can figure out how to call me or 911 if necessary. Not to mention that in the 7 years I've had kids, literally nothing has EVER come up. Otherwise, I'm paying them to sit in my living room and do homework while the kids sleep, or come along with me to the parade to watch the youngest wander around or something. I don't need a $30/hr sitter for that.[/quote]
