[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the end of 2014 we were paying our modestly experienced nanny (at that point 3 years with us, 3 years with another family) $925 for 50 hours.   One elementary school kid, one preschooler.  She went part time with us in 2015, and we reduced her pay proportionally.  If you do the math, it works out to $18.50 an hour average, but first 40 were at $16.82 and over 40 were at $25.22.  We paid over 50 at the higher rate.  When she went part time, we paid her hours at the 18.50 to even it out for her (it worked out to be an hourly raise).  When she started with us in 2011, we paid 850/week.  By giving her raises, we may have priced her out of starting at her current salary.

She has an AA, is legal.  She read to my kids, helped with homework and taught then yoga.   As for perks, we paid her 52 weeks/year.  That is, we paid when we might be on vacation or when she might be.  She tried to time her vacation with at least one week of ours.  She got off days when one of us got vacation days.  We covered her sick days, although we did not give her a number/year.  She never abused it.

There are good nannies out there.
