[quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous]This is really easy to tease out. Contact three of the larger au pair (live in) programs and ask for the current costs for 40 hr week au pair. You supply room, board, meals and the monthly or weekly "salary". That's your bar, your comparable, your alternative. Don't waste your time on Dcum. [/quote] That only works if you wish to hire an AP, which OP does not want to do, from what she has posted. And BTW, an AP makes federal minimum wage for 45 hours/week, and 40% of her wages are held back to cover room and board. OP will NEVER find a decent nanny willing to work for that amount of money. [(7.25 x 45) - 40% = $195.75] You could always try to con a good experienced nanny into a 40% room/board deduction, but most nannies would laugh so hard they'd cry. For example, if OP wants 30 hours/week at $15/hour, and does the ridiculous 40% deduction, she'd be offering $270/week. [/quote]
