[quote=Anonymous]I have a friend looking for a summer-time nanny close to Baltimore (but more a DC suburb so I think her area pays a tiny bit higher), for her 3 kids, and her "high" end is $20.  And she expects light housekeeping with that.  Your education is impressive, but unless I read too quickly, you don't have any full-time, long-term Nannying experience in a home setting.  So I don't think you can command the higher end of the range that people are talking about on here.  Education is great, but an employer looking for someone to manage those long, summer days is going to want to see track history of success in the particular job s/he is hiring for ... and there are a lot of education majors our there who have actually Nannied before.  So $18ish sounds right to me, and maybe a little higher if you're lucky.  But over $20 seems like a reach to me (also, I pay my awesome, awesome full-time Nanny a bit less than this for the simple reason that we're her first full-time Nannying job, too).[/quote]
