I had a friend with your attitude, would go on and on about how much she was paid, thought she was so great, then after many years all the kids in her rich parent circles grew up. Suddenly she was job hunting like everyone else and realised she wasn't worth as much as she thought she was. She ended up taking a nanny share job with 2 newborns and got the same as she had previously for one family. You may be getting $30 an hour, that doesn't mean you're worth that much or that that us the going rate for someone looking for a job or looking to hire.


LOL.... jealous?

If you can work 18 years at $30+ an hour and not be "worth it" more power to ya right? Thats a good gig! Too bad shes not "worth it" and had to get $30hr all those years. Maybe one day she will be "worth it"?

you may have somehow fallen into this job, but that doesn't make it the norm.

It's my regular rate. Sorry. And you need to grow up.


If I knew you were my nanny, and it can't be that hard to figure out since there aren't many people who will pay $30/hr, I would fire you for that comment.

Dream on. Anyone with your attitude would never get the opportunity to hire me, even if you could afford me. Your gross entitlement is inappropriate for an employer and a needless threat to the creation of a stable and respectful relationship with a caregiver.

Wasn't going to post, but I'll chime in with the above poster, I'm making $26/hr this year for 2 kids and I also have no degree.

If you only do 35 hrs guaranteed then offer 20-21. We are doing 40 guaranteed on the books at $18 and taxes from that. It's not that much take home if you count it all out.
With 20-21, pto and vacation you'd be competitive I think. Most I've interviews wanted 20 if they had early childhood degrees etc.

Thank you. OP here. I asked her and she said she preferred for us to make a rate offer first.

MB here, in close in MoCo.

I would say that you should be prepared to pay $18-20/hr, perhaps more if you want to be particularly specific about the candidates.

If your job were 50 hours a week I think you could go a little lower on the hourly rate and still get decent applicants, but for 35 hours and 10 yrs of experience you'll want to bump the rate towards the higher end.

If you advertise $20/hr or more for one child you will be SWAMPED with applications and will have your choice of any number of highly qualified, american, applicants.

What's the going rate for your job, OP? Is yours the same as others in your part of town?

Find who you want and ask her. Can be $10-15-20-25-30, or even more. But probably most decent nannies average $20-25/hr.

We are hiring a nanny for the first time. She would work 35 hours a week and take care of one two year old. We live in NW DC. We'd like to hire someone with 10+ years of experience. I'm wondering what the going rate is these days? We pay on the books and want to offer competitive wages. Thanks !
