To utilize the energy stored in grass, the crop must be harvested and processed into a âuser-friendlyâ format, either on farm or transported to an off-farm facility. Like wood, grasses can be densified into a durable, high-quality pellet fuel, sized to a standard Â¼ -inch diameter.
According to the 2012 INA Nanny Salary and Benefits Survey: 1  The national average hourly rate for babysitting or short-term assignments is $16 per hour. 2  The national average gross weekly salary for full-time live-out nannies is $705. 3  The national average gross weekly salary for full-time live-in nannies is $652.
Of course there is a wide range, with many variables. If you want a nanny who is educated, has CPR, first-aid, Trustline, excellent references, and at least ten years of experience, expect to pay $13 for one child, and $15 for two. Also, nannies should be paid a weekly salary, week in, week out.Meaning, if you go on vacation, you should still pay her. I work as a nanny and my family pays me $300 per week ($15/hour, twenty hours/week) regardless of holidays, vacations, illness in their family or in mine.If they didn't, as a single mother with no other source of income, I'd really be up a creek.'ve been paying $9/hr for one nanny and $10/hr for another. When I've had a share it's usually been $6/hr. per child (so when there were three kids, the nanny received $18/hr.) In my experience, younger people tend to charge more and what your caretaker is asking for definitely seems past the high end.
