So please don't think me rude, I really don't want to be following on from my previous thread please tell me how much you pay your nanny gross and whether live-in or out and whether London or not.

Please name change

Any nannies who want to tell me their salary please do with a new name of course

I'm just wondering whether I need to abandon this and start my childcare arrangements all over again (maybe give up work ?)

I am just north of london - in Hertfordshire

fludnelb · 19/05/2008 14:05

South West, £8ph gross, live out

elliott · 19/05/2008 14:08

£9 per hour gross, live out in the North of England. An easy job (imo!) part time (2 days/wk) for 6 and 4 yr old.
Pay is at the high end for our area - would have been less but I felt I needed to match the hourly rate she was being paid by her other family for a more demanding job.

NannyMakesMePoor · 19/05/2008 14:09

Ours costs us £25k per year gross,plus car tax,insurance,servicing etc,plus food and phonecalls etc.

We are North of London (Herts).

It is crippling but without a doubt our preferred option for DC.

PrincessPeaHead · 19/05/2008 14:11

oh dear don't know gross off the top of my head
£350 pw net
for a 42.5 hour week
live out
wiltshire

PPH I think yours works out just under £10 per hour gross, assuming you are her only job.

NannyMakesMePoor · 19/05/2008 14:29

Our nanny lives in I forgot to say.

imananny · 19/05/2008 15:23

i would have name changed - but i dont know how to do it?

mummypoppins · 19/05/2008 15:30

19k per year plus car , free broadband etc. Live in. 40 hrs a week in term time and 55 in hols.

rural midlands

PrincessPeaHead · 19/05/2008 19:46

yup that is probably right
but she is getting 6 weeks paid holiday this year and we live in the depths of nowhere so she does OK I think
oh we give her a car as well

PrincessPeaHead · 19/05/2008 19:47

oh and in the hols she works 5 hours pw less (starts an hour later)

Tutter · 19/05/2008 19:50

i'm rubbish at sums

we paid our live-out mother's help £1,166 a month (so just under £300 a week) net, for a mon-fri 8-5 job

Tutter · 19/05/2008 19:51

i'm in home counties btw

Millarkie · 19/05/2008 20:04

7.70 per hour gross. But that's for a non-career 'nanny' in a first job, and is for 'good' hours ie.9-5.30 maximum each day and 2 days finish at 3pm. That's not London - East of England.

Nanny before this one was about £10 per hour gross but brought her own baby with her, was also first nanny job but she had 10 years childcare experience in nurseries. That was London. She had plenty of friends who were in first nanny jobs after nursery jobs and were earning £200 a week cash-in-hand though.

imananny · 19/05/2008 20:18

tutter - thats about 19 000 gross

iheartdusty · 19/05/2008 20:20

£1100 gross per month live out 40 hours p/w approx (and full time in school holidays but lots of extra holidays). South-East non-London.

1dilemma · 19/05/2008 23:06

Thankyou thankyou guys

I shall ponder some of these (in a truely anonymous way )

Doesn't look out of the question at first glance
