[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family is new to the area, and we’re searching for a full-time nanny for our 4 month old baby girl. I was expecting to pay $15 per hour, however I’ve had two applicants tell me that rate is too low, and have quoted me $20/hr and $22/hr?! I know DC is expensive, but that’s literally half of my income per year. Is this normal? We live in Columbia Heights if that matters, and we only want childcare duties, as we have a cleaning lady that comes 1x per week. We also looked into a share, and the quote was $14 per baby. That’s $28 per hour. I hate to sound insensitive, but if this is really the case in this area with private childcare, then unfortunately I may start looking into a few daycares. [/quote] Here's a newsflash for you. All childcare givers deserve a livable wage, just as you do! I bet you wouldn't take care of someone else's kid for $14/hr.[/quote]
