[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in that  situation.  I was *paid $25 to care for 2 infants in DC.  When the 2nd family added another child (3 months when he started) I charged them a single family rate.  The ball was in my court and if I wasn’t getting additional PTO then they were going to pay me. I also knew I was capable of caring for 3 but it wasn’t going to be easy and for a while, we were stuck in the house. I went from $25 to $36 per hour and that included the increase for the child and a $1.50 from the other family for a raise. I’d never care for 3 children, simultaneously for less than $30 an hour. It’s not fair. Either pay up or add another week of PTO and maybe contribute to healthcare, gas or paying for metro to and from work if applicable. [/quote]

Excuse my typos :) and the other 2 children were 2 years old when the third baby was added. [/quote]

So say in about a year, they put one of the older children into full day preschool.  Would you reduce your rate by that much? [/quote]
