[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This is not meant to be racist[/b], I am black myself, but as a nanny I have found that a lot of black families that start out looking for a nanny attempt to grossly under pay. Im talking $150/week for 3 kids from 7-6 under pay. I think its simply a result of having little knowledge of what hiring a nanny entails. They often falsely assume that its the same as hiring a neighborhood teenager on a Friday night to babysit. So the attempt fails miserably, the children go to daycare, and they tell all their friends to never try it because its awful. [/quote]

Then you failed.
We're not talking about whether or not black employers under-pay. We're talking about how common or uncommon it is for AA's in DC to have nannie[/quote]

I addressed the question. One of the reasons you don't see a lot of black families with nannies is because they go into the search with out of whack expectations and have a miserable time finding one, or they find someone and their nanny ends up being worthless like their pay rate. Just my observation, not an across the board fact, but I do think it contributes to the observation OP described. [/quote]
