[quote=Anonymous]It depends entirely on which city. We are in the SF Bay area, and $20 would be a challenge here for two kids, since the going share rate is now $24-$26/hr. For one child, it would be easily doable ($17-$20/hr). Our friends in DC pay a little less than that for their shares so it might be possible there. How many hours is your older child in school? Could you set up a share, if the hours are long enough? We had a great situation with our older child where our share partners employed the nanny for 10 hours a day and we used 8 a day. The rate was the same for all 10 hours, but they paid both halves for the first and last hour, when the nanny dropped off and collected their older child from preschool. Obviously, it's harder to make that work if the preschool is only a few hours or a few days a week, but it's worth considering if it might make the overall cost feasible.[/quote]
