Would you really only pay me £5ph because I'm bringing my own child? I mean really a paediatric nurse with lots of experience? Are you having a laugh feel abit insulted. I'm in London btw and was not expecting the full amount and happy to take a pay cut but £5 really?

Do you have experience as a nanny? Or just as a nurse?

You have to be paid at least minimum wage, bringing your own child or not.

I think the usual reduction is around 20-30%.

What other kind of nanny is there?

We love in SW London and pay our nanny (who has a daughter she brings along who is the same age as my DS) £9 p/h net. I saw her having her own child as a positive.

That's net clarinet and no I'm not looking after sick children just your average family looking for a nanny. Going rate is £10 upwards I'm London so 8ph is a good rate imo

8ph with your child net or gross?

Clarinet9 · 17/06/2014 15:57

Um why 'paediatric' nanny are you pitching yourself at parents of children with chronic health problems or are you feeling a bit cross?

TBH my opinion is probably of little interest because I would have to be beyond desperate to employ a nanny who brings her own child to work but I gather the going rate is 2/3 so it depends on where you are working in London, experience, whether you are looking specifically for sick children etc etc
