[quote=Anonymous]I am a nanny to three wonderful children, it's my drive in life - I absolutely love my profession and am so thankful for my employers. I make pretty decent pay, I am salary and make comparable pay to a teacher. I am from a small town in the south where many people confuse a nanny with a babysitter. Over the past three months, I've had five acquaintances from home contact me to ask what a nanny makes and how they can hire one but in the same breath, they mention needing a sitter - that alone shows me that they have no idea what my job is. They bluntly ask me what I make and if I'd take a very low pay from them. I'm wondering how I give them answers without seeming snotty. I know these people could never hire a nanny. I don't want to come off as a know it all who educates them about the differences in nannies and babysitters but I also hate that they think so lowly of me. Does anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions?[/quote]
