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.

Not if you are lying, it isn’t.

I think the $30 thing is an outlier.

We pay $25 per hour for an infant and a toddler, in DC, on the books, 40 hours a week. She’s phenomenal. English speaking, highly recommended, fantastic. Long time nanny. She does not have a college degree. And I assume that’s hard to find. I also don’t really understand the value of that for a nanny.

She doesn't. It's just virtue signaling. As in, "of course we care about education!"

Is your nanny undocumented or are you in a town of 20 people? I’m a nanny and haven’t been paid under $20 since 2002.

My nanny is a mid-twenties woman who was born in the US. We paid her $16 last year, now $18 with our second child. This is on par with what other parents I know in PG and Anne Arundel counties pay.

I pay $30 for a good babysitter even when kids are asleep so why not?

LA nanny again- My degree is in teaching, where I made 70k. Last year I made 115k as a nanny and this year I’m on track to make $130k. Working for celebrities is kind of terrible, but with long days (ie: OT), travel per diems, and bonuses, you can make double a teachers salary. That’s why I do it. If we travel, I get paid $40/hr + OT after 9hr, double OT after 12, then an overnight flat rate of $150, plus a daily $200 per diem, for being away from home. I didn’t ask for any of this btw, this was the contract presented to me. Teaching nannies are in demand.

Above should say that I’m NOT the $15 poster.

Because nannies in HCOL areas make six-figures while working one week off and one week on with rich families.

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!

Anne Arundel County is not the DMV.

I agree. But, I’m the first $15 hr poster.

But, I know a few other moms in PG who also pay $16. Do you consider PG to be the DMV?

Depends where you live, I’m in LA and get paid $35-40/hr.

You can't be in the DMV at that price, that's minimum wage here.

We pay $26 for one kid for our English speaking, driving nanny. She’s not college educated but fantastic.
