[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With my experience (over 10 years) I won't accept less than $19 per hr for 2 kids, the going rate in the DC area is $10 per child in a nanny share, some families pay more. I think $17 & $ 18 is a bit too low for 2 kids. [/quote] Two-child shares typically pay a few dollars more per hour than a single family with two children, because of the extra hassle to the nanny that comes from having to deal with two sets of parental expectations and rules, two sets of meals, two sets of scheduling issues, etc. Most shares in the DC market pay $18 to $20 per hour, split between the families. I know people who pay $18 for two kids in the same family, but that is after several years of raises. Most two-child, one family jobs start at $16 or $17 and quite a few start at $15. OP, your rate is not the issue. It didn't work for this particular candidate, but will work fine for plenty of others.[/quote]
