[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I read that language as, they want to pay a modest hourly wage (“a little extra money”), not what a nanny would charge. [/quote] It’s this. It’s code for “we’re cheap and not willing to pay market value for childcare.”[/quote] I don't think that specific language means this, but yeah, these types of posts are usually cringy and entitled for this reason. The pay often doesn't compensate for a person's time adequately. They often post a small hourly wage and then expect someone to happily drive to their house five times a week for 10 hours of work. A college kid could instead get a weekend job and commute twice for the same pay. Obviously the details differ from posting to posting, but the trend exists.[/quote]
