[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am interviewing nannies for a full time job with my newborn. I found a very qualified lady and have exchanging preliminary emails . We are about to have a call and I want to know what’s fair. She has asked for $22 without her baby and $20 if she can bring her baby.

The job is full time at my house with my new born and her four month old.

Is this rate correct?[/quote]

The newborn rate seems reasonable if she has the qualifications and skills to back it up.  The rate for her to bring her baby seems way too high - in a matter of months, her baby will be mobile and she will need to devote more time to watching her own child.  Then it will become more like a nanny share.[/quote]

It's only like a nanny share if they go to her house half the time, she has say in the schedule (i.e. her baby's naps don't have to revolve around nanny kid's outings/schedule), etc[/quote]

Two babies is a share.[/quote]

Is the nanny giving input and allowed to host? [/quote]

This is op, we haven’t spoken yet on any details she has just asked to bring her baby with her. I am looking for someone to come to my
House though. If she wanted to host that would be a different story and we would probably have to look elsewhere.[/quote]

I think this poster was saying that to say, if she can’t host or give input then it is not a nanny share. [/quote]
DP. Not all shares split hosting duties. When I was looking quite a few people wanted to host full-time and I have a friend that was in a share that was hosted by the other family. A share = two unrelated children. I personally would not do this because I would never expect someone to treat my child with as much love and consideration that they treat their own. However, I think that having a job where you could bring your child could be motivating. I think 18-19 would be more appropriate if she is bringing her child. [/quote]
