[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She will make a lot more money and garner a lot more respect if she gets a college degree in Early Childhood Education.  The nanny field is getting more and more competitive now and the big money and good jobs are going to the nannies with education and experience.  [/quote]

OP suggested she get an education degree, but she doesn't want to do that.
Honestly, I would be pissed off at the family she babysits for. Without a doubt they are educated professionals making enough money to hire a nanny and they offer their sitter who they know is college bound a full time job as their newborn nanny.
If this was my kid they would be hearing from me loud and clear. I'd also bet that in the future they would be pissed off if someone tried to pull that stunt with their kid.

OP if your daughter wants to be an adult let her. If she wants to be a nanny great, but she should no opportunities don't last forever. Her college acceptances will not last for ever. For most schools at the very most you can defer the offer for a year. I think that should be the same offer you and your husband make her. She has a year otherwise you paying for her is off the table. She can take that year save a little money, but she she needs to be focusing herself. 
She can save and pay for it on her own. She also needs to move out. It's full time school and part time job or part time school and full time job . There is no I'm going to take a job but not pay for anything. Nope she can take that fabulous nanny salary and pay for an apartment , her groceries, her hair, nails, and car etc.
I love all these people coming in her saying I had a degree and it got me nothing that's because you didn't use your degree wisely. Those that do fair better. Facts.
