[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. Thanks for the advice :) I’m offering $20/hour for 20 hours a week, which is the same total as the $10 most are charging for full time. So should I just pay the $10 for 40 hours? I can’t afford $20 full time right now but can possibly increase to $15 an hour in 6 months or so. [/quote] Where do you live, OP?! [/quote] Southwest. Here the living wage is $13 an hour. Everyone I’ve spoken to from care.com charges $10ish an hour. Just for reference, it’s very different from DC. Everyone who works as a nanny is 18-22 years old and either a college student or has young children of their own. None have a degree, none are professional. I’ve had a couple friends who nannied and they were paid $6-10 an hour. So $20 is WAY over the standard rates here. [/quote]
