Compensation for Short-term Temporary Jobs
Short-term temporary jobs are extremely popular among our nannies given the flexibility it allows. These jobs are paid through the Nanny Network payroll system, and therefore, the agency will make appropriate withholdings for federal, state and other taxes, as required by law. However, with the addition of our Same Day Pay benefit (see below) you can get paid within minutes of completing a job. The hourly rates for back-up child care and babysitting jobs start out at $17.00+ per hour (pre-tax) in Baltimore, $18.00+ per hour in Washington, DC. The Nanny Network also offers a quarterly caregiver raise program for our best performers where a $0.50-1.00 per hour raise is available every 3 months for outstanding performance.
For temporary family assistant or Sidekick jobs in Baltimore (agency-paid), the hourly rate is $18.00+ per hour. For temporary assistant and Sidekick jobs in Washington, D.C., the hourly rate is $20.00+ per hour.
Our eLearning Aides can arn anywhere between $18-25 per hour (pre-tax) depending on their education, training and experience.
Same Day Pay
We launched our Same Day Pay benefit in August 2022 for our temp nannies and were the first nanny agency in history to do so! Since then we have seen a significant increase in the amount of jobs our short-term care providers are interested in, given the speed in which caregivers can get paid. Gone are the days of having to wait to get paid until the next payroll cycle.
