My advice is to up the hours by 15 and add in more responsibilities and a date night. For a legal-to-work, I’d say upwards of $23 to $25 an hour. That also gets you someone who is on call for sick days and school holidays.


I would do this, too. We have our nanny work part-time with our kids and part-time for us/as a house manager. She wanted to stay with us when the kids started school so we agreed. During the summer or other times when they're out of school she is full-time with the kids. We also do one late night a week during the school year. It works out great and you know you have someone all the time who can pivot between nanny and house manager as needed. Kids home from school for snow days? She has them covered. Someone to be there for the cable guy to come during a six-hour window? She has that covered.


Nanny here. You must to be such a nice family employers. Your nanny is so lucky to have gotten the chance to be keeper her full time with you; even when your kids started full time school. What a nice agreement.

$30-$35/hr. Most nannies can make $25/hr for just childcare.

It’s not a myth in Los Angeles (I wish it were). You won’t find someone reliable for the same hourly as a full time and they’ll leave when they find a full time job.




And 25 hours a week during the week precludes the nanny from getting a second job.



+2. It’s the shorter hours of the typical work week that’s the problem. If it were a weekend job, I think it would be different. A nanny is not going to take a 25 hour a week job during the week if she can get a 40 hour job during the week. Hence, you have to pay more to make the 25 hour week attractive and retain her.

I think it is like this in other jobs too unless they don’t care about the turnover.

So many variables.
-where are you located?
-are the hours set each week?
-what are the hours?
-what do you consider "minor housekeeping / house manager responsibilities"?

-what benefits will you offer?

Curious what market rate is for a part-time nanny/house manager for one child, 20-25 hours/week. Responsibilities include school pick up, laundry for child, meal prep, and other minor housekeeping / house manager responsibilities. Thanks.
