[quote=nannydebsays]The issue with your proposal that a nanny's wage be doubled, or at least increased by more than $1 - $2/hour when an additional child is added to the family is this: Nannies press this issue. Nannies try to insist on 50% raises when a second baby arrives. Parents say, well, OK, you have a point about the workload. Then the nanny who once made $15/hour for one child is told that because the potential employers plan to have a second child "someday'" and can't afford to give a 50% raise when that happens, they will either start nanny at $10/hour and then give that 50% raise whenever baby #2 shows up, or they will pay nanny $15/hour now and fire her when they have baby number 2 so that they can hire a new nanny for $16/hour.
