Is £300 per week a lot for a full time live-in nanny in London?

I'm meeting a nanny tomorrow and that's what she has quoted me - although I'm not sure if that's net or gross.

Is that a lot or about the going rate. She mentioned 7am to 7pm - so proper full time hours.

It depends on qualifications and experience, but it's probably fair for those hours if you are actually in London and not out on the edge of the M25.

It does not sound much. I think at the top of the market there is very little difference between live in and live out rates. Which is wrong, I know. £300npw sounds about average.
