    Ad Offering $20 An Hour???

    I saw an ad today offering $20 an hour for before and after school care for 2 boys! Wow, I wanted to ask if they were for real! I can barely get $100/week for full time kids, so I responded to the ad. Not sure if I'll get it, but that would be awesome. How would I ask them if that amount is right? Usually there is a range with most people selecting 5-10 per hour but then they offer a different amount in their ad. This one says 20-20 per hour. How would I even ask if they are really offering $300 per week to care for their 2 boys. It also makes me wonder if they have little monsters, kwim???

    They are also looking for inhome care and I would provide care in my home, but we will see what happens. I am not looking forward to waking up earlier to accomodate the early drop off, but for that much money I think I could manage!!!

    What do you all think? To good to be true? or diamond in the rough?

            They're looking for a nanny, $20 an hour for a nanny for 2 kids sounds about right. I used to be a nanny and I charged $12 an hour for one child because it's one on one care in the persons home including light housework. That's why it's a higher fee.
