[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, please, please do a search here on "nanny cost" and "nanny rate".

Hourly wages range from minimum wage to $25-30/hour depending on who you want.

Speaking from extensive experience, I do not recommend share arrangements for infants. However, many families opt for that in lieu of daycare because of price.

[b]Also, share arrangements are illegal in Montgomery, Arlington and Fairfax counties.[/b] Not sure about other areas.

Illegal without a permit. Not illegal. [/quote]
Duh, you aren't so smart, are you, my dear?
Thing is, who gets the permit, the nanny or the parent? 
The nanny has to live-in to qualify as a resident of the home, and all the adults in the home need to get background checked. And yes, the place must be child proofed, and checked by various inspectors. [/quote]

According to Fairfax, a nanny can get a permit for a day home as long as one child lives in that home.  However, yes, you are then subject to planned and unplanned inspections, and all the rigmarole that comes with running an in-home daycare.  No thanks.  I have no intention of getting in trouble for not having a permit, so I won't do shares in Fairfax.[/quote]
I'm guessing the nanny has to live in the home to be a resident and get licensed.[/quote]

Not according to what I was told.  Either the nanny lives there or a child lives there, but either way it can be licensed.[/quote]
When you get a license, it's for the care provider *and* for the space, and the person needs to be a resident of the home.[/quote]
