[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I currently have a live-in nanny but she is leaving.  Here is what she does:

Start work at 7am, get two kids ready for school
8:45 walks kids to school
9-3:30 probably spends one hour or less cleaning house, rest is free time
3:40 picks up kids and walks them home
3:45-7pm watches kids, makes dinner, cleans up after dinner. Takes kids to sports 1-2x/week.
Also covers early release, snow days, sick days.

If I want to hire someone for this schedule, what should I expect to pay?  Current nanny works for minimum wage (VA/$7.25).[/quote]

If your sitter can't accept another job commitment during her "free time", it's not free time. Let's be honest.[/quote]

True, I assumed since had certain tasks to get done between 9-3:30 and as long as they were done and she was able to pick up kids at 3:40, she could use that time for other things. I'm the PP who suggested a student would be a good fit for this position, I don't think it'd be a good fir for experienced full time nannies based on pay and schedule.  A young person who's in school or fresh out of it, without a spouse or children would be a good candidate.[/quote]
