Op made it a point to say the 4 year old was reading at first grade level, lol. So you judge what kind of mom and kid they are. Poor nanny.
Academic ability doesn’t correlate to emotional maturity.

OP should expect custodial care only and be grateful for anything extra. However, if that’s all they can afford...

Gee what could go wrong with a nanny with no experience working 11 hour days with an infant and an entitled boss?
OP’s kid is 4. I would NEVER recommend that for an infant. 4? Kid is old enough to tell the parent if/when something goes wrong.

Would you accept a first year medical student to operate on you? No. I also do not want an 18 yr old with no experience taking care of my child.

That costs more than my after taxes monthly salary. That is $4700 monthly base salary plus benefits/taxes for taking care of my 4 year old. Is that how much what everyone is paying?
I always wonder, when I see responses like this, what the OP was expecting? Did they expect to see people quoting rates of $10/hr?
They’re the same people who expect to buy in this area for $100K total.
They don’t look until they’ve already leaped. OPs kid is 4 for god’s sake. I was researching prices before I even conceived.
Yeah they don’t even think about it. No sh*t a full time worker for just your kid for 11 hours a day is expensive. What do you expect?!
Don't forget they have to plan activities, help with reading, help with zoom school, etc! For 11 hours! All for minimum wage.
