Don't let anyone here talk you down - you sound like the type of nanny who can command this level of compensation.[/quote] This is bad advice, OP. You may have education, but you don't have any F/T nannying experience, so that works against you. For your area (and I'm in DC, so it's familiar), I'd say ask for $14-$16 for 1-2 kids, and top out at $20/hr for 3, if the family has no camps and you are truly F/T with three. Most families will think $20 is too high, but I think it's reasonable to ask for 3 kids and see if they will counter at $18-$19/hr. Good luck.[/quote] I'm happy to read that. $14-16 is quite generous, especially for full-time work. I would be happy to be making that, it would help put a dent in my tuition and travel savings! Thank you for providing a clear and concise answer. [/quote]
