[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Supply and Demand.

The current minimum wage is 13.00 an hour in DC.  Those jobs are constantly on their feet, with no 'nap time' to relax.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never argue on this forum about hourly rate.  If you think you can great a great nanny for $15 to $20 an hour - try.  Chances are you will not be able to keep her.  Live and learn.  We aren’t in DC but pay $27 an hour plus full medical and a leased car that she is free to use on weekends and off hours.  [/quote]

Just curious, where are you located?  What you pay is the exception not the norm.

There are plenty of very good nannies out there in the DC burbs for $15-20/hour.[/quote]

No their aren’t and you aren’t a good employer. Think about it, why would you take a job that pays $15/hr...[/quote][/quote]

This right here.  There is an oversupply of nannies willing to work for $15-20.  This is a simple economics game especially in the suburbs.  And as far as not being a good employer and paying only $15/hr, lol.  There are a lot of posters on here that are just bad they are overpaying and will do whatever it takes to justify their position.  Good grief![/quote]

Finally some common sense; I am glad to see that out of the wood-work we are finding more people that find 15-20.00 a fair price.  Of course many nannies on these forums will find that not worth their time, but then again their job can be replaced by any blue collar worker.[/quote]
