[quote=Anonymous]We have had the same nanny for 8 years. As the kids have grown up she’s morphed into more of a home manager/driver/cook. She is very valuable to our family and we now pay her $30/hour. We needed help while she was off this summer and our neighbor was looking for work for her live-in housekeeper. I spoke to the neighbor and she said they pay this woman $700/week for 50+ hours to cook and clean. We paid the lady $20/hour which she was happy with, and she did a good job though she doesn’t drive and her English isn’t great. Then our nanny came back and I think was pissed that we had someone else in the house, somehow she told the housekeeper about her $30/hr rate. The housekeeper sent me a text saying that she feels that we should have paid her $30/hr too and that we took advantage of her. WWYD? I’m pissed because we paid the lady what we both agreed to, but I’m also embarrassed as I don’t want our neighbor to think we didn’t appreciate using her housekeeper. [/quote]
