[quote=Anonymous]I agree that other industries would not cover the expense. I disagree that that is a poor reflection on nannies. We do all sorts of things a daycare wouldn't. Watch older siblings during breaks, deal with contagious illness, travel with our employers, allow them to direct what their child learns and when potty training happens. Those are some of the reasons parents choose a nanny. On the flip side, I get to work in yoga pants, I don't have to deal with a boss looking over my shoulder all day, my days are spent outdoors and at fun places, I make more then a teacher but still get to work with kids, and my MB would cover the $120 increase in transportation expenses if they moved far away. The flexibility and closeness of a nanny-employer relationship is a bonus when handled with its due respect.[/quote]
