[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You haven't said how many hours a week you would be working but, assuming a 40 hour work week, at $250, each family isn't even paying you minimum wage. I mean, I think you should get at least whatever the minimum wage is in your area from each family. Federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour but it could be higher in your area. I just don't know how they can think that $500/week is an acceptable living wage, especially since you won't be paid over the summer. Really, it sounds to me like these families cannot afford a nanny and need to just go the daycare route.[/quote] 47.5 hours a week. It works out to about 5$ an hour each family, straight time, or 10$ an hour together. [/quote] They should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. Not only will you have very little time with your child but you'll barely be able to make ends meet. There is no way on earth you can save money from that tiny salary to live through the summer on. Sweet Jesus![/quote]
