Is there anything you want the nanny to do besides care for the children?<br /><br />2. Do you require the nanny to have a vehicle? Do take into consideration that cars that safely support three children so young are rarer than those that don't. What I mean is, three seats in a back doesn't always translate to three car seats. These larger vehicles tend to consume more gas, making the nannies who drive them rarer. If you don't have a vehicle for your nanny to drive three children like that, than expect to pay more.<br /><br />3. Do the children have any special needs or requirements?<br /><br />For example, I would say a nanny caring for and transporting an autistic child in his or her car should be compensated more than a nanny caring for a normal child at home if only because (a) you want his or her car to be well maintained for your child's safety and (b) there are fewer nannies willing to care for autistic children than there are nannies willing to care for normal.yaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-37995745726662175152012-05-11T16:23:06.100-04:002012-05-11T16:23:06.100-04:00I am in Boston and I make 17 an hour before taxes....I am in Boston and I make 17 an hour before taxes.

Definitely higher on the range with 3 under 2yo!! <br /><br />However, in NYC for ft positions, people pay a salary generally for 50 hours/week. I would say for 3 kids under 2yo, I would insist on $850 minimum gross. <br /><br />SF: I'm still learning things here. So different from anywhere else I have been. Nannies get paid much more than NYC, roughly 25% more. Salaries are unheard of so it is hourly no matter what (more in keeping with the law anyway).<br /><br />One: $16-18<br />Two: $18-22<br />Three: $22-30. At least $25/hr with 3 under 2.<br /><br />But you also have to drive here, have your own car/insurance, and be fully legal.nycmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-46795446542433741982012-05-10T15:54:34.552-04:002012-05-10T15:54:34.552-04:00In NYC, $15 an hour minimum for 1, $20-$25 for thr...In NYC, $15 an hour minimum for 1, $20-$25 for three.

I live in Okie and get $12 per hour for 1 baby, $15 for 2 and $18 for 3. But I am definitely getting the HIGH end for my area, most other people around here get $8-$12 per hour.<br /><br />PS: I think Truth Seeker means it is highly UNlikely they will all sleep at the same time. :)MissMannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15111173519948500730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-14627844481961536342012-05-09T14:56:29.352-04:002012-05-09T14:56:29.352-04:00OP this type of question would be difficult to ans...OP this type of question would be difficult to answer unless we know what part of the US you reside in. Rates vary by area.<br /><br />I live in San Diego, California and for A: I would charge $120 per week for a six month old if I was caring for him or her in my employer's home. Probably $50 if I was doing it out of my own home.<br /><br />B: I think a good hourly rate for the three children under two would most definitely be at LEAST $15 per hour. Caring for three children under 2 is a HUGE job (been there..done that!) and it will sap all of your energy since it would be highly likely they would all nap at the same exact time. <br /><br />Hope this helps out.<br /><br />☺Truth Seekerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14354400264283369594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-34578677495483217712012-05-09T14:33:10.133-04:002012-05-09T14:33:10.133-04:00Depends on where you live.Depends on where you live.Bostonnannynoreply@blogger.com
