This is fine. Everyone knows that the workload doesn't double when a second child is born. If any nanny thinks that, then she isn't a very good nanny.
On the contrary, only a lazy ass would say a new baby is no work. Maybe for you who does not much of anything.
*does not do....

Will your rising two-year-old be in part-time preschool next year? If so, that's a factor in how much you give.
Or you might consider a $1 raise when baby is born, and another $2 when you go back to work.
Maybe a ten year old mother's helper would be pleased.

You are generous to a fault. A real Lady Bountiful. A huge $2.00/hr for adding twice the work.
Exactly. So very sad.
