Formula Used

The recommended hourly rate is calculated using the following formula:

Where:

• Minimum Wage is the current minimum wage in Ontario.
• Experience Adjustment is a percentage based on the nanny's experience level.
• Pay Type Adjustment is 1.0 for hourly pay and 1.2 for salary pay.

The estimated net pay is calculated by multiplying the recommended hourly rate by the number of hours worked and then subtracting estimated taxes and deductions.

Worked Example

Let's calculate the nanny pay for a nanny who works 30 hours per week, has intermediate experience, and is paid hourly.

1. Minimum Wage in Ontario: $15.50/hour
2. Experience Adjustment for Intermediate: 10%
3. Pay Type Adjustment for Hourly: 1.0

Estimated Net Pay for 30 hours:

This example shows that the nanny would earn approximately $17.05 per hour and $409.20 net per week for 30 hours of work.

• Income Tax: Ontario has a progressive income tax system with rates ranging from 5.05% to 13.16%.
