[quote=Anonymous]I appreciate all the time that went into figuring out those numbers and the true cost of employing a nanny. Having a nanny is a luxury, and one we can only afford because we're a two income household and both of us have well established careers and good salaries. Our primary expenses are nanny, mortgage, and savings (college and retirement) - in that order of magnitude. We can't afford a nanny at $35/hr (for 50 hours a week) but have been able to have wonderful nannies (3) for the past 12 years, starting at hourly rates of $18-20 and increasing over time to about $26/hr. I think there's a range of nannies, a range of families, a range of benefits/working conditions, and a range of salaries. Info often gets skewed here in all kinds of ways.[/quote]
