[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a nanny employer, I agree that $1/hour is not enough. That equates to doubling her work load for a measly 40 bucks a week. I think at least $2 per hour is more appropriate, and would say the typical increase is $2-$5 per hour.[/quote] I agree with you on the raise, but just a minor quibble: her workload is not doubling. She isn't doing twice as much. She just gives less to each kid per kid - same as a mother would do when a second child comes on board. [/quote] Her workload is doubling. She is doing twice as much. She now will do double the laundry, double the dishes, double the toy pickup, double the meal prep when baby starts to eat, etc. How do you not see that she is doing double the work? Not to mention that an infant and toddler have different needs and different schedules. It can be a struggle to manage both depending on parental philosophies. [/quote] +1,000,000 [/quote]
