I am returning to work and asking our nanny to watch our five-month-old as well as our 4 year old. However the 4 year old will be at school or camp for most of the day most days, until 3:30 everyday.
We had been paying her $17 an hour for one child and she did the laundry and helped with some meals.
Now I think I am going to offer her $20 an hour and want to make sure that's fair. While our eldest will mostly not be there we figure the extra $3 an hour could be counted towards laundry and cooking meals a couple times a week. Is this fair?
