[quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I have 5 years of nanny experience with little newborn and no twin experience. My experience is with toddlers ages 1-3. This is a true live-in nanny job. The family wants a nanny who will live there permanently. [/quote]

Oh, OK. Well, first, I think that they are not in touch at all with what a nanny must legally make, not to mention the market rate for a nanny, so I'd guess job creep would start on day 1 if they meet your pay needs, because they'll feel they are overpaying you. Second, unless you've worked as a LI before, and/or are able to set and keep serious boundaries around work time vs. off time, you'll be in for a world of hurt with unpaid work hours.

That said, if you want the job, I would document what care and sittercity's wage calculators say would be the correct rate for a nanny caring for infant twins, and I would ask some local agencies to price the job as well, given your experience level. Then go back to them and present that info and make your case as to why you are worth $15/hour.

Good luck! [/quote]
