[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. As PPs have noted, my question was about what I can expect to pay. If I can't afford it, I'll consider not going back to work. But I'd rather not start with a set figure and then work backwards into hiring a crappy nanny because I wont pay more for a good one . But I guess I can look at it the other way too: My take-home pay is roughly $65K and I guess I was hoping the total costs for a nanny would be under $50K. Thanks to the PP who listed all associated costs.[b] We don't want our nanny to drive and the babies won't take classes so that'll shave some expenses off.[/b] [/quote]

OP, do you live in easy walking distance to parks, libraries, and other places where Nanny can go with your kids? If you are seeking a long term Nanny, you will need to let her go out with the kids occasionally. If you find that idea silly, think about it again after you confine yourself to your house with 2 babies 10+ hours a day for 5 days straight.

No one is happy stuck at home alone with 2 babies. Not allowing reasonable outings will seriously minimize your pool of candidates.[/quote]
