[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could get a mother's helper for that price, or a babysitter probably. Those aren't nanny wages. [/quote] This. That's an okay amount for a young teenager with no experience who will never be alone with the kids (I'd personally still offer $15, primarily because I think we need to value care work more, but then I can afford that so it's easy for me to say). But no adult, and certainly not one with any babysitting or housework experience, should be paid that little for what is essentially hard labor.[/quote] A young teen should not be doing hard labor daily from 5-9 pm. That’s illegal child labor and the state of Virginia agrees.[/quote]
