You are already grossly underpaying her. $20 for three kids! Dream on. She is going to find a new job. $25.00/hr minimum for three kids and just because 6 yr old is in school does not mean nanny is no longer caring for her. Cheap.

Just give her the raise that she wanted OP. I have a nanny a mile from your location and I'm paying her $20/hour for one child.

How is $19 generous in Rockville? Rockville is expensive. I'm in silver spring, I make $20 for a newborn, with no other responsibilities.
I don't get why any experienced nanny would take less than $20 for 2 in this area.

Good grief, what a closed minded statement! $20 an hour to be a nanny, I'd take that offer hands down! Many people who have paid to educate themselves can't even find jobs making that amount of money. .. Not to say nannies aren't valuable or something. Kids are hard work! .. but that was just a ridiculous thing to say... poor nanny, only making almost $40,000... please!


If you are barely making $40,000 a year, you were not making enough money to have a child.

You are a fool for taking this job in the first place and an even bigger fool for staying. Your employer know you will not quit so why should they give you a salary increase? You are your own worst enemy.
