[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting ... the San Diego nanny with the $23/hr salary is thinking of leaving her job b/c of no bonus, while the Orange County nanny who makes $15-$16/hr is "very happy" with her $1000 bonus.

SD nanny makes almost $41,000/yr for 34 hours a week.
OC nanny makes, at most, before taxes, $33,300/yr. We'll add the $1000 to that.

SD nanny makes $7000 a year more, for almost one day less work each week, and yet may quit over this bonus.

This is not a rare sentiment on this board. As a MB, the message I keep getting from nannies here is to offer a low starting salary, because nannies value raises and bonuses more than earning more money altogether.[/quote]

The San Diego nanny works [i]23 hours per week[/i], she doesn't make that much per week so you have that wrong in numbers.[/quote]

[b]You all need a geography lesson.    That nanny ($23/hr) is from Santa Barbara--not San Diego.   They are over 200 miles apart[/b].[/quote]

Thank you! Santa Barbara and San Diego are very different nanny markets.  [/quote]

You are right that I got the Santa Barbara part wrong. This, however, is a direct quote from her post: "Weekly salary - 34 hours at $23/hour."
I also don't think the market is much different between SD and SB, though may be cheaper in OC.[/quote]
