[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nanny here- I negotiated net, $22/hr which is $29/hr. How do you expect your nanny to live off $20/gross?? Could you live off $16-17/hr? [/quote] That is fine, but you should be negotiating in gross terms. Negotiate for what you have calculated that you need/want/deserve to earn. If that is $29/hour, then lead with that upfront. Why would you negotiate for $22/hr net instead of $29/hr gross? The former leads to confusion, whereas the latter is completely straightforward. [/quote]
