[quote=Anonymous]I doubt folks on here know your area and the market rate there very well. However, if you are cycling through nannies that fast, it merits examining if you are paying enough. Certainly for the DC area $11/hr for only 36 hours is pretty low (hourly rate wouldn't be so bad if it was for 50 but at 36 it's pretty bad). Can you pay more? You could also throw yourselves on the mercy of the nanny. Tell her that you are happy to mail her the check if she will take 15 minutes to have a call with you to tell you why the position was not attractive. Explain that you have been through so many nannies and are genuinely trying to understand what YOUR FAMILY can do differently next time to try to keep someone more long term. Make sure you are clear that you are trying to soul search here, not nit pick why she may have quit. Whatever she tells you do NOT argue back with her about the reason. Just listen.[/quote]
