[quote=Anonymous]Market decides the rate. A nanny is solely responsible for everything that caring for and educating her charges entails. When I nannied I did the shopping, prepared the meals, did theaundry, cleaned their rooms and playroom, planned activities and researched crafts, lessons, and excursions. There was no one there doing that leg work for me, and there was no one I could fall back on as having made the decision or blaming it on policy. The buck stopped with me, and I was paid well for it. A daycare worker shows up to work and does what someone else has planned for them to do. They have additional help, and are not the sole decision maker when it comes to anything. They do not have to navigate the same kind of relationships with the parents. They do not negotiate their own contract. It's just honestly a whole different ball game being a nanny vs. a daycare worker. [/quote]
