[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We live in the suburbs, as do the friends we want to share a nanny with. We currently pay our awesome nanny just over $20 an hour for a toddler. We were hoping to pay her $25 an hour in the share, but she wanted $30. We don't think either family would go for a share at $30 per hour total, since one of our key motivations for having a nanny is not having to do much pick-ups and drop-offs.

We are also hoping to have a second child in 2022, and exiting the nanny share arrangement at that time. If we did end up doing a nanny share at $30 per hour total, would our nanny be able to adjust back down to a wage of $25 an hour working just for us?[/quote]

I think your nanny is telling you she doesn't really want to do the share, without saying that. Like if you make it super worth her while she will do it, but she isn't interested. Just keep your nanny at your current payment level. You will be happier and have more flexibility and then not need to drop the share when baby 2 comes. [/quote]
