Lmao at the nanny with only a highschool diploma claiming to make $28/hr. -- This is the reason most join the nanny biz.. It's the highest paying job for someone without the education.

Well, she did have 7 years of full-time experience before working for her current family, is with her current family for almost 10 years, so probably received raises, and in L.A. which is not the cheapest unless you are seeking illegal nannies.

You are right though that you don't need to have a formal education to make a livable hourly wage.

Also to have been with one family for nearly 10 years should speak volumes about the kind of nanny she is. Shame on you PP. formal education is not the only path to success.

That's high, even for LA. If working 60 hrs a week, both parents must be highly- paid professionals.

No, I don't think it's all that high for LA. If both parents aren't "highly paid", they can't really afford the luxury of nanny services, in the first place. Don't you think?

I haven't weighed in on this yet and know nothing about LA rates, but my employers are "highly paid" (IMO) and couldn't possibly afford $28/hr plus overtime.

I disagree on both counts. I live in LA, btw.
