[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, I've worked as a nanny for a long time. My current rate is $30 hour, for one child. I've earned this rate for several years now, across different families with 1-2 children. I agree with the person who said why deal with three families, when you can get that rate for one family? I'm sure all the families are nice people, but how well do you know each other? Are you really all on same page as to hours, overtime, sick time, nanny expectations and duties, etc.? These are all things I don't have to worry about when I'm only working with one family. I've seen it a few times where one set of parents has different parenting styles, but imagine that x3. Honestly, a share with three families is not something I would personally consider. But since your question was about rate, I'd ask nanny what she wants to earn or what she earned previously and then increase it some. For me, I'd say $35-$40/hr would be bare minimum. Shares really pose more of a risk when I think of accepting a job, especially if families don't know each other well and/or have never had a nanny. So again, if i can get $30-$35 with much less responsibility, why would I risk accepting a share position? And yes, $25/hr for one child is very common in this area. [/quote]
