[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would not hire a nanny with a master's degree in less they were a SAHM looking for something to do or extra income. I'd wonder why they were not in their chosen field. Plus, the point of a nanny is so I can work and I would not consider them as reasonable in terms of salary and if I am paying them more than I earn, there is no benefit to a nanny.[/quote] I have a masters in Early Childhood Education and this is my chosen field. I've worked in preschools for years but prefer the one-on-one teaching of being a nanny. I earn $25 an hour so no - you are right that many families cannot afford me - but I am certain I earn far less than my MB. And to answer your question, OP, it depends on how overweight and where the nanny carries her weight. Belly weight is fatiguing and unhealthy. A few extra pounds around the but, hips and thighs is just the way some women are build and it doesn't effect activity. Overweight is one thing -- obese is another. You have to be able to move and run quickly when you are a nanny. [/quote]
