The caliber of our estate and ranch managers is quite impressive. We have applicants with years of experience who have worked in the finest homes in the world, served the “movers and shakers” of our time and have a tremendous work ethic and the graciousness and elegance to provide beautiful service.

Estate managers are screened for their ability to do the job with grace and poise, their emotional and intellectual stability, and their commitment to long term employment in the field of in-home service.

Salary range: Whatever salary you pay should reflect the hours in the work week; Everything over that should be compensated with extra pay or extra time off during weeks that are not so hectic in your home. Nannies must be flexible, and these wonderful, cherished employees are there for your support–but don’t burn them out! If you must work long hours at your career, use your nanny for that coverage and hire a local live-out for evening or weekend coverage. Many nannies are happy to do the extra coverage, but the employer should acknowledge it as such and reimburse accordingly–or you may be looking for a new nanny just as you thought things were going so well! Local live-outs can best be found through the Child Development teachers in the local Home Economics departments of community colleges.

The salary range for beginning nannies with good, strong childcare experience but no previous live-in experience is $400 to $500 net per week. Experienced nannies earn $500 to $1,000 net and up per week depending on the hours and number of children.

A nanny should be treated as a professional. Put together the most complete package you can for your nanny, i.e. health insurance, two week paid vacation per year, perhaps an extra trip home during the year, use of a car (ideally exclusive use of a car). Providing time for some higher education and perhaps paying some tuition could insure the longevity you need from your nanny.
