[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's really only this generation of parents who have decided that they, on a middleclass salary, should be able to afford private in-home care, and thus it should be affordable to them. A nanny is a luxury service. It's expensive for a variety of reasons, but the biggest is that it is a luxury service, and good nannies have their choice of wealthy clients. This drives up the rates. I was a college educated, multilingual, hard-working, professional, reliable service provider, and I never had a hard time earning $25/hour. Am I overpaid if that's what my services can command? Are you overpaid just because there are people who want your services but can't afford them?[/quote] You should get more than $25 an hour for that level of service.[/quote]
