Does anyone know the going rate for a part time nanny? I just need someone to come two to three days out the week to watch my toddler while I run errands. Please help

    I talked to one of my mom-friends about this just this week. The rate really varies by experience of the person and how much housework you expect them to do with the base being 10-12 and going way up. I've heard 35-40 even.

     I plan to use care.com about a month before we start needing someone and going from there. I will say though, what you're describing is more "babysitter" category. So I'd try the websites searching for babysitter. I wouldn't call someone a nanny unless they work at least 30 hours a week for you (and often nannies expect benefits and higher pay). Hope that helps!

    I've heard 1015 is pretty standard. If you only need care part time you might also want to consider a nanny share which could be even more affordable....either one nanny splitting the week between two families, or find a family who already has a full time nanny and add your LO the two days you need it with some cost sharing arrangement.
