Same experience, $24 and we have a wonderful nanny.

You know, I wish that were true but it isn’t. However the foreign nannies, with little to no education and limited English, don’t post here. My experience looking for an American nanny with some college, their quotes were in line with the nannies who post here.


Your own language skills are less than stellar so I'm guessing you're either a nanny or being taken for a ride.

And this proves my point. You can easily get 22-25$ for 1 infant. Why do double the work for 24$?


PP here, and I reject your premise. I don't believe you can "easily" get a job for $25 per hour caring for one infant.


You absolutely can with the right credentials - and this was precovid, three years ago.

Exactly!

God, I would never do a share. I thought the nannies earned more than that.

The industry standard is that a shared nanny gives each family a 2/3-3/4 discount on her single family rate. More and more nannies are becoming aware of this.

If a nanny charges $24/hour for one child from a single family, then each share family will pay $16-18 per hour.

What is the going rate for 1 infant? If the going rate is between 22-25$ an hour nannies why do you continuously accept positions for shares at 22-25$? You can easily make that with one. Please stop charging a single child rate for a share. Parents please stop trying to normalize splitting a nanny’s rate into half. That’s not how shares are supposed to work.
