[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a teacher for twenty years and left it behind to become a nanny.  I am nearly finished my masters in Early Childhood Development and have learned infant sign language -- would I have done all that if being a nanny wasn't a real career?

Your family is simply ignorant of the changing market.  Educate them or ignore them.  [/quote]

Professionals, e.g. doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects, nurses, teachers all have to pass a state exam in order to practice their professions.  You can get a ph. d in early childhood development but if you are a nanny, it is not a profession.  [b]Frankly. I have to wonder why anyone with college degrees would ever work as a nanny.  The US Dept. of Labor does not comsider nannying a profession.[/b]  Professionals are paid a salary and are not hourly emoloyees.

I am an MB who would not hire a nanny without a college degree.  How can you think so little of your own children to not consider the woman (or man) who cares, teaches and protects them ten hours a day is not professional?!

Those you disparage nannies disparage their own children.  [/quote]
