What affects a nanny's salary

Child's age

Newborns need feeding and care through the night, so infant nannies are at the top of the range.

Number of children

Twins, or a toddler plus a school-age child, are more work and cost more.

Extra duties

Children's meals, laundry and homework help are usually expected. General housework is a separate job.

Experience

A nanny with years in families and references you can call is worth more than someone starting out.

Local differences

Extras to budget for
