Nanny care is not "elite" child care. It's readily available labor in many, many markets, made more accessible to parents and potential nannies by sites like care.com, etc. There is nothing "elite" about nannies.
A high quality center-based daycare/preschool would cost us MORE than a nanny for our children. So it seems high quality center care must be the "elite" form of childcare. |

| Nanny care has always been elite care. Babysitter, not so much. Learn the difference. |

| Where I live, nannies are for middle class families. Only working class families use daycares. So your statement is inaccurate. |

Please define your idea of middle class. |

Oh, $50,000 a year to $500,000 a year or so. |

| What do you mean by entitled? If some one posts a job with the salary range and applicants apply, is this being more entitled than any other employer posting a job, reviewing candidates, and offering it to the top pick? |

| What is up with some of the nannies on this board? Elite nannies are caring and do this kind of work because they feel it is a calling and not work...Why all the bitter questions and topics getting started, it seems like this is coming from one angry nanny who sounds like they need to get out of the nanny profession and get some professional help. |

Many of us do indeed love our work, but make no mistake. It is work. |

Yep. Angry and in need of professional help sums it up pretty well. |
