I think your friend is full of shit.
If she is a 24 hour nanny, this is realistic.

PP here. That's an incredible set-up. The family must be very wealthy to pay that kind of $$

There is always going to be a horror story about a well educated person doing something below their training.

I'm well-educated and I'm considering it.

I was a nanny with a Master's degree too. I couldn't find a teaching job (elementary teachers are a dime a dozen) but I needed to work and pay off my loans. I now have had a teaching job for a few years but I made sure I applied with top agencies. I worked for a very wealthy family who wanted an educated nanny. I actually now earn the same amount after 3 yrs of teaching that I did as a nanny.

Nannying in a nanny share actually pays quite well, although not well enough to service a law school debt load ...

Ashley Newhall of Philadelphia has a law degree and a master's in agricultural law, and she passed the bar in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. These days, she's working with some extremely demanding and exacting clients.
Most of them are less than 3 years old. Newhall's primary income source for the past few years has been baby-sitting.
Parents, said Newhall, are "blown away. They're like, 'Oh my gosh! You're the most overeducated nanny I've ever had.' "
But jobs are scarce, and all that education came with six-figure debt for Newhall, 28. Along with two other jobs, she said, "the nannying is keeping me afloat."
