[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We pay $20. We're in Bethesda, have 3 kids, wanted someone with experience and good reference, legal with a clean driving record. That's about it. The nannies we've interviewed have all been in that price range (or maybe higher). Are you looking in places like Bethesda? And are you talking multiple kids? If it's just one baby $15 seems more reasonable.[/quote] Agreed. The $20+ jobs in DC are for[b] multiple kids[/b] with extra duties. One kid won't command that rate.[/quote] Making $25 here just outside DC proper for 2 kids, no special issues, no extra duties [no cleaning, no laundry, nothing], and I use my own car for driving with gas reimbursement on top of salary. Your over-generalizations aren't correct.[/quote] Your single experience doesn't negate the average. Also, if you read correctly, you would find that multiple kids do command a higher rate, although rarely over $20/hr. The market is the market, and you are overpaid. Good for you.[/quote]
