What’s a reasonable pay rate for a 16 year old nanny who will be babysitting for two days a week, 12.5 hours a day?

Where do you live? Usually if you join your local nanny page- you can find rates. Where I’m located it would be $25-35 an hour. But if you live in a small town in Idaho… I would guess it would be a lot less. However if they’re 16 at least minimum wage.

I was paid 15 bucks per hour as a nanny. Anything less than that would be an insult.

Depends on what u make and what u can afford. U can’t pay someone minimum wage if u only make minimum wage. It would be pointless to work

Just make it a flat rate. $150
The daycare by me is $3 an hour in Summer, $5 when school is in.

Definitely more than minimum wage. She could go work somewhere else and make more than that. Be fair. Pay her the market rate for nannies in your area. Don’t underpay her just because she’s 16.

Anyone saying minimum wage needs to watch their own kids

$15.00 an hour per kid at least. She is going to be watching your kid(s) for 25 hours out of the week so you should Definitely take that into account.
