[quote=Anonymous]I’m a nanny and my wage with my regular job hasn’t increased at all ($29/hr in LA) but with new babysitting families now I charge $35-45/hr. That’s the only way I’ve been able to keep up, because I love my regular job, despite the low pay for this city. I’ve also cut out milk, yoghurt, and eggs because I just can’t afford it anymore. I make all my own meals and haven’t gone to a restaurant since 2019. I do meal prep and don’t waste anything. With my regular job and babysitting on the side, I make over $100k a year and I have to live like this. I refuse to dip into my savings, so things are tight because I send $500/week to savings and won’t stop - despite these crazy prices! [/quote]
