How is it illegal
9.25*40 + 13.88*10 = 508.08 Pretty safe to believe they would actual pay that rather than risk paying below minimum wage to save 8.80 a week. |

It is illegal to quote a nanny a salary rather than hourly wage. Nannies, are by law, hourly employees. And is 9.25 minimum wage where this poster is living because it is not in my state. |

| Look, there are horrid and out-of-touch people everywhere. If this parent thinks she can get someone decent for $9.80 an hour - let her try. She will learn. |

| I want to hear from a parent who can justify paying $10/hr (what this averages out to) for full time care for 3 children and demanding everything this parent list. Seriously, what is going through your mind?! |

Who cares? Like PP said there are horrid and out-of-touch people everywhere. She will learn... |

I’m curious and would love to hear from a family looking for this. I don’t think these families learn as there are nannies who take these positions and someone keeps sharing these terrible jobs. |

Is the family’s phone no.# listed?
If so, OP you may get in trouble. And they will get tons of bitter phone calls! That is a ton of work AND responsibility. And there are cameras as well!! No way would I work for such low pay if I am being recorded as well.

| You all should respond and say I'm interested, but just want to clarify you made a typo. You meant $800/week, right? |
