$18-$25 an hour. The rate will likely not change when she has the 5yo as well. Assuming you want her to have him when he is off school as well.

Where do you live? Most people on DCUM hike up the rates. I would think 20-22 is reasonable. You don’t need to pay $25 for someone good, legal and experienced.

Most competitive candidates will be around $25+, which you'll want for three young kids if you can afford it. You might be able to find someone with less experience, like a recent grad or newer to nanny profession for around $20/hr. But it also isn't hard for nannies to get around $20/hr for 1-2 kids. Rate is just one part of package though, so depends on other things also.

You still need to pay full-time for 3 kids as there are sick days, holidays, no school days. $18-25.

Whatever she charges.



+1. Your potential nanny candidates will have a rate for your position. Makes no difference what we say.

$25 to $30. The nanny, I assume, will also be responsible for the five-year-old on school holidays and sick days as well as his/her laundry.

For only a few hours a day, you'll probably have to pay at least $25 an hour or its not worth their time.
