[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There might come a time when you need to really consider if nannying is what you want to do with your life, or if it is a stepping stone to a more stable, lucrative career.[/quote] I think this is valuable advice. Right now I make way more than my partner (he works part-time and is a student) but within the next 5 years, he will be making 2-3x what I make once he begins his career. As much as I love nannying, at the end of the day I find myself looking at it as a dead-end career - you can't really get promoted as a nanny, it's very very rare to find nannies who make 6 figures, etc. I'm only nannying as a break from school, and fully intend to go back to finish my degree once I've paid down a bit of my student debt. Sadly, even once I've got my degree I'll still make less than my partner, but at least I'll be able to financially hold my own, contribute to our future, and be in a career with a future for me.[/quote]
