[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow look at the comments. You nannies aren't worth min wage. This is embarrassing.

OP, please go to a different site for this. You will get more professional, kind, people. Not DCUM slum.

Also, $400 is fine. None of these nannies have educations so they can't complain.[/quote]

I am not a nanny. In DC, $10 an hour for FT work is really low, the people I know tend to pay between $15 and $18, unless they do a nanny share. A co-worker just hired a nanny (NW DC), one child 40 hours a week, and she told me she will be paying over $3000 a month.  no need to insult other posters. unless all my friends are the ones overpaying their nannies, you cannot seriously argue that $10 an hour for FT work is a market rate in DC for a nanny with reasonable experience and legal to work. OP is giving her nanny a raving review, so it is a little suspicious that she pays her so much under market. I wonder if the nanny is a legal resident and/or has permission to work.  A great nanny with permission to work simply would not work FT  for such a low pay for year since she would have the opportunity to find a better paying job sooner or later.  maybe there is something that OP did not say (maybe the nanny works less hours, or has other perks that make the pay acceptable)[/quote]
