I am a nanny who is making 300.00 a week cash?

Question

i work 25 hours a week, monday to friday noon to 5 pm . 12.00 an hour. for one child. does this seem like a good rate ?

i was working 50 hrs a week elsewhere as a nanny and only made 400 a week,

Answer 1

yeah thats a good rate! I watch 3 kids for 30-40 hours a week & only get 200!! I know thats way too low & I'm about to move on.

Answer 2

That seems perfectly fair to me. You could be working at Taco Bell making $8 an hour and stink like fried food. Instead...you get to be responsible for the upbringing of children which is a beautiful thing. Consider yourself lucky. Best Wishes!

Answer 3

Considering most day cares only charge 150-200/week for an infant I would say that is an excellent rate.

Answer 4

Wow 12.00 an hour for 25 hours a week. Im moving there. I was offered a Nanny Job for 7.00 an hour at 40 hours a week for 3 kids. But I also live in WI we don't get don't paid good here. Some day cares here still only pay 6.50 an hour. so 12 is great for that 25 hours a week I would love to work 25 hours and get paid that much.

Answer 5

yeah, that seems like a fairly good rate :)

Answer 6

That is excellent pay. I used to make $2.50/hr.

That's better than my full time/with a degree job.

What state do you live in that you get paid that much?

Wow, that's great... maybe I need to think about moving.... what about house payments/rent? Here it is around $500/mo.

Answer 7

If you are getting paid cash and your employer is not reporting your income to the IRS you and your employer are breaking the law.

Answer 8

12$ / hr for babysitting.  Sounds pretty good to me!!  I used to get $2 / hr.

Answer 9

Seems like an avvesome rate to me! There's some people that vvork a 40 vveek and dont even make that much. sounds like they are paying you very vvell, expecially for just one child.
