[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Background story: English is my second language, please be gentle.
My younger sister refused to care for my kids because she doesn't like  my wife. Younger sister used to live with us while in college. She just completed her early Childhood Education and received her associate degree. She lived with us rent free in exchange for child care for my newborn son.

Two years forward, my wife and I had another baby. We asked my sister to watch both kids full time. We agree to pay her plus rent free. She said absolutely NO! She is moving out next Friday and staying with her new employer until she save cash for a new place. $36,000 new Nanny salary plus sick pay and holiday. Her new boss is a college professor and husband is in sales. My wife and I were can pay her $15 per hour plus free rent. Let me know if I was too cheap? I am sure I was. I feel so sad for my kids. We don't have that kind of cash for a Nanny.[/quote]

That is $3,000/month and after taxes, FICA, etc around $2,000/ month.  Yes, you are cheap.  Two kids is a minimum o $25/$30 an hour.  Also, hiring relatives is also not a good idea.
