STAY AT HOME MOM'S "SALARY"
Back from vacation, lots to catch up on...
Salary.Com just released its annual study regarding the market value of a stay at home mom. Every year this group gets together and evaluates precisely what mom is worth, by looking at pay levels for the various jobs a mother may do during a given week, like housekeeping, child-care, van driver and teacher. This year, the number they came up with? $116,805. The biggest factor in the number is the amount of overtime hours that a mom may work during the week. 18,000 moms were surveyed and the average number of hours worked per week was 94.4 hours, or just over 13 hours a day.
