Look, if your current nanny's happy with a dollar increase, you've got it made. No worries.

On the other hand, if you have to get a new nanny along with your new baby, that could be a hard situation for your first child. You decide. But I must say, you shouldn't be stressing out on this forum during your pregnancy. Put your feet up and relax, or take a good walk when the ice is gone. Think happy thoughts and you'll have a happier baby. Congratulations to you.

Who doubles their workload for that kind of token increase?

It's not doubling your workload, increasing definitely but not doubling, nor is a 6% raise anything to sneeze at. OP could easily find a good nanny to watch both kids for $18-$19/hour. Her particular nanny may be worth more than that to OP, but the question was about the going rate, not what rate the whackadoo troll charges.

Well, I'm not a nanny, so my salary and raises really aren't relevant, are they?

No clear thinking person doubles their workload for a dollar an hour. Why would they?

Then then can quit. I personally do what my manager and customers demand and don't require a raise for every little additional duty. But I also have a work ethic.

When did you last provide FT longterm infant care?

It's not double the workload. Stop being lazy.

Such a nonsense question! Just ask your sitter what she expects. She won't bite you. I promise!

Oh please.

OP - please look at the recent threads on this and save us all yet another rehash of the same war.

$1-2 is sufficient.

Hi, we currently pay 17 per hr for our 1 1/2 year old. New baby due in march, how much of a raise do we give to account for the new baby?
