As long as there are women who don't want to take care of their children there will always be a demand for them. You are delusional is you believe the prices you quoted.


What a misogynistic comment

Who cares what these women want? Well paying jobs are being slashed left and right and it’s only going to get worse. Your prime customer base doesn’t have the money to pay you what you want.

My sister gets 45$ per hour for a similar gig. Retired K-6 teacher. Every benefit you can imagine. Even gas mileage.

She tells me: 3 kids? I am used to 24!

Very well-off family, obviously.

Nannies will not have 3 car seats in their own personal vehicle.

Standard benefits are 2 weeks paid vacation, 5 paid sick days, paid holidays, and guaranteed hours so you pay them for the full schedule every single week even if you are on vacation or don't need them. Some candidates will also ask for a health insurance stipend.

Domestic employer taxes are about 10% of the nanny's gross annual income.

Payroll companies are about $600-750 per year.

If you are in DC or MD, you'll need a worker's comp insurance policy which is also about $750 per year.

A one weeks pay Christmas bonus is standard.


More like $50/hr. Too much for one person's.

I have been a professional Nanny for well over 10years. First, if you plan to actually hire a Nanny you want someone with experience handling multiple children under 3.
Your particular circumstance is extremely demanding. I would not accept that type of job for less than $40.00 an hour. You could find a Nanny that charges less, but again, make sure they have experience.
Best of luck to you.

I would keep the toddler in the current daycare and hire a nanny with lots of twin experience to care for the twins only for at least the first 6 months. That is the earliest that you could potentially have them on a consistent sleep schedule. Then some time between 6-12 months they can transition to daycare along with older sibling, or you can have a nanny care for all 3.


This is a great suggestion and what I would do.

No, one adult should be able to handle this.

Should be able to handle, and willingly wanting to handle are not the same thing.
