[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, OP should be ashamed of herself for trying to find someone who is willing to take half of the going rate. If you can’t afford the service, you can’t afford it. Teenage babysitters make $20 to $25 or more. These are real people who need real liveable. You’re middle class and live in America. Wake up with your own baby at night. [/quote]

Ashamed? No. She’s offering 20-25% above legal minimum wage, and as long as she limits the hours under the taxable number she has nothing to be “ashamed” of.

She’s just not being realistic. A good night nurse is someone with a high degree of experience and professionalism and while you may think you only want someone vaccinated who could give CPR, the reality is you want someone who can genuinely support your recover and your baby’s adjustment to the household, and that doesn’t come inexpensively .[/quote]

RN's earn FAR above minimum wage.  A good night NURSE has far more than basic CPR and their vaccinations[/quote]

You do realize when most people say “night nurse “ they really mean a night nanny? Like it’s just a title that’s used and been carried over…

I absolutely do realize that.  And it's a slap in the face to REAL nurses

Signed a person who used a “ night nurse” aka a night nanny

These women are incredible and know exactly how to care for new moms and babies. Any serious medical advice and needs should be done through your doctors [/quote][/quote]

Different poster, but your examples don't required degrees or education

Does it offend you when people use the term “nursing” instead of “breast feeding” too? What about a “nursery”? Is that a slap in the face because that’s where babies sleep and not nurses?

Serious question.[/quote][/quote]

Exactly….so all those terms would be “a slap in the face”…[/quote]
