I agree. It's really outrageous that good nannies settle for low wages. No experienced decent nanny in this area should accept less than $23-25/hr. Most of the area agencies have kept a tight lid on fair nanny wages. They should be ashamed of themselves. The ADCAN nannies should lead the way for advocating for fair wages. Cut the love fest with agency owners who keep your wages low, in spite of your college degree and twenty years of professional experience. Agency owners are taking advantage of you. Wake up! |
Agree with this to some extent but I personally have had a great experience with WHN. They now post the pay range for each job. I currently make $26 an hour at the job I found through them a couple of years ago. They also were great advocates for me through a difficult situation with a past job. I realize YMMV with agencies but I never felt like they were steering me toward accepting a lower-paying job. |
Wow. That's surprising to hear. Who did you deal with (if you aren't a WHN troll)? |
Mostly Annie but also Barbara and Stephanie. |
