how much do you pay for your nanny?

rqb25 · February 2011

I am starting to interview nannies for the fall. It will be for a 2 and a half year old and a 3 month old. My two year old will be at school three mornings a week. It will be about 45 hours a week. I have been quoted so many different numbers so I wanted to get an idea of what the norm is??

Bumping this one as I am interested too.

I am guessing it varies depending on experience/age, how many kids, expectations (is there also light housework involved, driving, etc) and the like. I know that in DC for 2 kids you are paying upwards of $15 and hour and taxes. So I am guessing Philly is less. My mom is going to be our nanny 2 days a week when we move this summer and we are going to pay her $10 an hour (which is not a lot, but it is what we can afford) plus taxes.

I would try and look into a nanny share. It is a little more affordable way to have a nanny. Good luck!

We were guesstimating about $2500 a month.

That is about what we were thinking too 2500-3000. For one child.

We had one child and paid $600 per week + vacation and sick days. We did not pay medical. We gave small raises each year. If we had more than one child, we would have paid more, but I have been fortunate to SAH since DS2 arrived.
