[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 1 yr old and 3 yr old and specifically wanted a young nanny who can dash into the street if needed, and who can run around all afternoon. I also didn't want someone who has tons of experience and would think their experience trumps what I want done. So I looked for someone with enough experience to know this is what they want to do, but not decades of experience.

Also, why do you say your mother wants $18 an hour but that's negotiable, but then won't negotiate down to $15?  Just say then that she wants to be paid $16-18 or whatever. [/quote]

So parents are now looking for Nannies that are young and naive?? That listen without having a conversation about concerning topics?

We do state $18/hr and when the parent has issues about pay thats when it is negotiable to $16 depending on the vibe my mom feels with the family. I put $18 for negotiable for everyone reading to understand.[/quote]

We had an older nanny over four years here in DC. But we paid $18 for two kids: $600 via w-2 and $300 cash per week, 50 hour weeks.
We had to part ways as she could not handle our youngest; we recommended her for baby or single child nanny jobs.[/quote]
