[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have nearly a decade of experience with 3 sets of twins age newborn-7.  I currently make $22 base rate in close-in northern va for infant twins.  [/quote]
If I get $24 for one toddler, why would I want less for two babies?? But that's just me. :)

Because every job is different and there are many factors aside from $.  My point is that great nannies can be found at a surprisingly wide range of pay, so I always roll my eyes when people post that any nanny charging X is going to be terrible, incompetent, neglectful, etc.  This is not a cut-and-dried industry.  It is not helpful to nannies to set an expectation that they will all be making top dollar and it is not reasonable to be angry at parents for advertising well within the normal range.  I would never want to work for only one kid.  I love working with twins, and I would rather have flexibility in other areas than a little more money.  My goal is to make enough money for my long-term needs while still enabling a pleasant and balanced life, which will include different factors for everyone.[/quote]
