[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im one of the posters who warn parents about the inflated rates nannies quote here, but I agree with the PP. For three kids, PT, $20/hr is a good rate. $17/hr is too low.[/quote] Not much is "inflated" if that's what it takes to get the kind of childcare you want. No two families are identical, nor are any two nannies. If you can afford to pay [b]higher rates for superior service[/b], you do it. You may feel excellent childcare is something anyone can provide. Most parents I know, feel very differently. [/quote] This is generally true but the problem with the nanny industry that "superior service" isn't in any way quantifiable or verifiable the way, say, a bigger house or a fancier car would be. There are no credentials, verifiable trainings, really nothing at all beyond your impression of the person and her references. This makes it difficult to peg nannies into different classes of service. [/quote]
