I currently care for a 2 1/2 year old from 7-5, Monday-Friday. I am paid $16/hr. MB is pregnant and due with a baby in the next few weeks and then will be on maternity leave until the end of May. Once she goes back to work full-time, I will get a pay raise to $17/hr.

I'm 25 and have about 8 years of experience if that matters at all.

A baby is a boatload of work for a dollar an hour. Hope it works out for you.

PP here: I am well aware of that. By the time I have the baby full-time, she will be 12 weeks old and I just don't see the need to ask for more then a $1/hr raise just to be caring for a toddler and infant.

Your employers found themselves a real bargain. Good for them.

+1 A real bargain. I once, out of generosity took on a temporary job that averaged out to $2/hr for an infant until toddler aged. The MB wanted to get iffy about paying. I handed her a break down of the rate I gifted to her, and an extensive detail of the services I was providing.--including the love, commitment to the DC. I asked her to take the weekend to consider whether she could get 1/2 of my services at that gifted rate anywhere else. If so, let me know and we can terminate our contract. She quit her quibbling after that.

I know. Fully understand, and respect its your decision to accept the $1. I am not disputing any of those facts.         So, without intending to offend, I'm just wondering if you're nervous about requesting a more equitable increase. I doubt if MB would take on an entire other position at her job, for only a $1 more per hour. IMO
