[quote=Anonymous]Care.com tells their customer (parents) what they want to hear, and their estimates skew very low. For example, when I enter information for a nanny such as myself (8 years of experience, 2 kids, 45 hours, NW DC), it suggests a pay rate of $15.54. It makes no consideration of the fact that I am legal to work, drive my own car, am bilingual, and have a related degree. The weekly rate that it calculates also doesn't include overtime which is so incredibly misleading to parents. It sets them up with high expectations, only to be disappointed when they can't find what they're looking for. Anything to get them to sign up. Every time I see the commercials with that care.com founder pretending to give a crap, I just want to smack her across her smug face. [/quote]
