Why does the nanny need to be college educated? Our nanny did not attend any college, but is legal to work, kind, patient, fluent in English, and great with our kid. We pay her $22 an hour.

Please specific you live in a Ohio town with three stoplights and a drug addiction problem before speaking. Thank you.


We live in a major city and none of us use drugs. Stoplights at most corners, because that’s how cities work.


Name the city


New poster here. I paid $16/hr in 2021 for a nanny with this exact profile.

Anne Arundel. So not DC but not rural Ohio. Sorry if that upsets you!

How long has the nanny been with you and what’s their hourly rate now?


It’s really simple math. Surely you can do it.


PP did not state the amount of each raise nor the amount of time the nanny has been with them.

It's really simple reading. Surely you can do it.

I do not believe you. Even the non-English speaking nannies I know are over $20 and paid in cash.


Your disbelief is irrelevant to the reality.

Yes. College educated nannies are definitely starting at $30 if not more.

We wanted “some college” but were firm on English fluency in speaking, reading, and writing. Our nanny is American and has a degree in literature (I think) and started with us in January at $30 for one baby.

$15? Really? I haven't had a nanny in years, but I do recall paying that around 2010.

Is that the current rate for a legal-to-work, college educated, English speaking nanny?
