[quote=Anonymous]I make just over 100k (dh makes the same) and we spend $3k a month on the nanny including some but not all employer taxes. I take home about 5100 (biweekly) after 401k and health insurance etc. so there's money left but certainly not enough for the mortgage and bills. We made a decision to have a nanny for 2.5-3 years. For health reasons (we have complications) and to give dd my language since nanny is a native speaker. It's been great and worth every penny. But I interviewed a lot of nannies and found a great fit. No drop off or pickup, hommrmade food from my country, naps on baby's schedule and 2-3 colds in 16 months of my kids life and no other illnesses were worth it. Not to mention all the reading, singing, multiple walks to parks a day etc. [/quote]
