[quote=Anonymous]I'm also in the western suburbs. $10.50 is too low. $12 is the minimum that a legal nanny should make. That's even low- more of a babysitter rate. Most of my friends pay $18, but they've had their nannies a long time and have multiple kids. $11 is min wage for downtown Chicago only, not suburbs. Suburbs are maybe $5 less than Chicago. The economy has picked up and nannies are making more than 3 years ago. I think you need to go to your family and tell them nanny wages have increased and a fair rate would be $12 or $13/hour and you need a raise. But if you do this, you have to be prepared to look for another job, because they may fire you.[/quote]
