Yes PP is so right. I cannot believe all of the posts I see looking for a nanny from $15-20hr that lives within 5 miles of Bethesda or Arlington or Van Ness. After taxes, for a 40 hour work week, the nanny would take home $400-600 per week or $1600-2400 per month. Then the family requires a car, prefers candidates who live alone during the pandemic, and doesn't provide health insurance. It's absolutely insane.

That would between $75,000 to over $100,000 for 50 hours p/week. I can hardly believe that nannies make more than most school teachers and nurses. That is more than lawyers in the government make when they start out. I guess I am just in disbelief and looking to hear from actual people who pay this much.
The going rate is slightly lower- $25-30hr. I was a nanny for 12 years and now run a nanny agency. I'm always happy to transparently talk about the nanny market, going rates, hiring process, etc. Let me know if you have any specific questions.
This is market rate. Nannies usually have to live within a certain radius of the family, because the family expects care even when roads aren't conducive to an hour or longer commute. That means that nannies won't accept a rate that won't let them live at an adequate level in that radius. If families would be more understanding of traffic, weather and other issues, nannies might charge less.

Exactly how do you get $100,000 for 50 hours?
Ok my math was bad, at $31 an hour for 50 hours a week you'd be making over $88,000 - plus health insurance would get you pretty close to $100,000. Regardless, $88k is still more than most teachers, many nurses, and many lawyers starting out in government. That is true even at the bottom end of this range -- $26 p/hr for 50 hrs a week is over $74,000 plus health insurance. I just want to know if there are people actually paying this much because this is what the service has told me is the going rate and I guess I'm in a bit of disbelief.

Between $20 and $30 an hour based on the nanny’s education, experience, certifications, and fluency in speaking and reading in English. The nanny will have her rate.
