nanny/in home care ques

If you have a nanny or someone who comes over to watch your LO, how much do you pay them?  And is it by the hour or salary?

Re: nanny/in home care ques

  • I think it depends on your area/ cost of living.  We found a "inexpensive" nanny share here.  $13 an hour split two ways.  It comes out to be about $240 a week or around $1000 a month.  She doesn't do Fridays (we have free care that day).

  • totally depends where you live. I'm in NYC but I lucked out cause my sis is starting grad school and needed a pt job.  She has been a nanny in the past and th going rate around here is between $10-20 per hour depending on experience.

    We pay her a salary of $375 weekly for 3 days.  Anything extra she is just doing as LO's "aunty" but she gave us a rate of what she would need to budget for her living expenses and this breaks down to approb $13/hr.

    Many nanny's want salary so they can budget or at least a guaranteed amount of hr per week.
