[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am incredibly passionate about childcare but I don't see child protection and nannying on the same level of accountability, education, or scope of practice. I don't want to downplay the nanny profession because I understand the importance of a qualified and competent caregiver. However, I am interested what kind of [b]realistic[/b] wage expectation I should negotiate for a nanny position.[/quote] It doesn't really matter how you "see" nannying (or "child protection"? what?), the fact is parents will pay more for someone with your qualifications. They place a high value on your experience and education and compensate accordingly. Most people who need a summer nanny will be people with school-aged children, typically 2-3, so $18-$25/hr is very realistic. [/quote]
