[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, MB here. If you're in the DC area I think a $2/hr raise is appropriate. An hourly rate of $19 is very competitive and still leaves you room for increases/raises etc... Discuss it with your nanny of course, but I think $2/hr is fair. Got to 3 if you can afford it and she's really fantastic. [/quote] Would you double your workload for such a minuscule increase in compensation? [/quote] The workload will not double. There is still only one nanny to go around. The nanny won't spend twice as many hours there. What will happen is the same thing that happens in families - each child will get less one-on-one attention and care. That's why adding a second child doesn't double the nanny's salary - because with two children, the amount of care PER CHILD goes down. This assumes both children are home full-time. [/quote]
