How much to pay nanny

sbgsbg member

We are hiring a nanny to help me take care of my 2 mos old daughters.  I have a 3 year old son, so I need the help.  The nanny will be just for the twins.  I will be home most of the time.  What do others pay nannys in a similar situation.  Thanks!

    I'm paying my mother's helpers 12/hr. Minimum wage in my state is almost 10/hr. They both have a lot of experience with newborns and have worked in daycare centers, so I don't mind paying more for their experience.

    It's REALLY going to vary based on the cost of living in your area. I would suggest asking your local board for input.

    In 2007 I worked for a family who had a 20 month old and had twins that were born right after I started, I made 12.00/hour with benefits.  Taking into consideration that was now 6 years ago!

    I have a friend that I pay $10 and hour to watch the girls. I am here most of the time, but sometimes I run errands or go to client meetings.
