[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd offer $25-26 plus maybe health contributions. You are already above market at $23 for one, which makes it tough. At the end of the day, though, she will be deciding on your offer versus what else is out there--and there aren't a huge number of jobs paying that much for two kids without early childhood education qualifications or other specific skills.[/quote]
Op is most definitely not already paying "above market". So far, no one has any real evidence what market value is in OP's geographical area. You need to see actual pay stubs or taxes, not random nannies or parents making unsubstantiated claims.[/quote]

Huh? OP said in the first post that she lives in NW DC. $23 plus the benefits offered for one toddler is above what the vast majority of nannies in NW are making in that situation, which why it is "above market." You don't need pay stubs for that--you just need to post the job and look at the applicant pool. I guarantee you that you would have your pick of many highly qualified nannies at that rate, at least in DC. YMMV if you live elsewhere.[/quote]
Do you visit the NW parks and libraries? I doubt it. The majority of what I see are NOT "highly qualified nannies". Check yourself.[/quote]
