[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, I really posted here for MB reactions as I knew what the response would be from nannies on this board.

I will say that for our first nanny, we paid substantially less than the package I am proposing now -- and she was great although not experienced.   She was better in most ways than our current part time experienced and educated nanny who we pay $20 an hour.  (We only needed substantially fewer part time for several years and our first nanny needed full time)

I was wondering what kind of pool we'll get at this middle rate - and I think I have had some good responses.

And yes - it is a benefit to guarantee hours:  hourly means hourly.  When I used to work hourly at a non-nanny job, I didn't get paid if my employer changed my shifts last minute on me.   It would be nice to be able afford the $60,000 annually for nanny taxes and salary that I know the nannies on this board say are standard for 50 hours a week, but we just can't.   Not many can.    When I ran this current package through Breedlove, it was about a $46,000 obligation annually for us, including taxes.[/quote]

I am an MB and I responded above that your hourly was too low for a good nanny.  Try it your way and see how it works out.  [/quote]
