[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They do t exist. I have 20+ years experience, a degree and impeccable references and it’s like pulling teeth to get a position at 25$ an hour. Most nannies are taking cheaper rates and I know some doing shares for 25$ which makes it harder for nannies to actually get a living wage. [/quote] I'm so sorry to hear that. I figure you'd want to pay someone that is caring for your kids a good wage. [/quote] While that’s true, it’s really hard to justify giving more than half your salary to someone else to watch the kids. And gross pay of $35/hour for 40 hrs/week is $72,800. I’d have to make over $140K/year to feel good about this setup. Otherwise, I’d consider it “worth it” to stay home with my own kids until they are school age and I can pay for part-time care.[/quote]
