[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MB here: I think this is fine. Your rate is actually very good, since you're saying this is the "after tax" (take home) rate. That's probably going to cost you more like $21/hr base rate. You should specify that this only includes FICA taxes, not her personal income taxes.

You need to spell out which holidays are "major" (and think through whether you're really going to make her come to work the day after TG, for example), and you need guaranteed hours.

Right now, you're guaranteeing her pay for two weeks of vacation when you are out of town/don't need her. Calling that "vacation" implies that you'll schedule it well in advance, and that it will be full weeks (not a day or two here and there). In other words, she'll be able to make plans to take a trip on those days. "Guaranteed hours" means that you pay her whenever you don't need her -- come home early, take a day trip, etc., in addition to those guaranteed weeks of vacation.[/quote]

Agree. Infants are easier than toddlers. $18 take home pay is good. 1 kid is so much easier. It's a great package  unless you want Mary Poppins level qualified nanny. [/quote]
