[quote=Anonymous]I'm not here to get into a pissing war with other adequately paid nannies and can't understand why you'd like to turn this into that? MBs like to say that "You can find great childcare for $12-$16 an hour, no one wants to pay more than that." My post was in response to that. But okay, I sanitize bottles and toys for infants, prep baby food for serving and freezing, handle the child's laundry, and bring many many years of quality childcare experience (and the references to prove it). So...developing art projects, finding neighborhood playmates, sign language (I actually learned ASL in college so can do quite a bit with that), research local activities (music classes, play gyms, free zoo day, whatever) and stuff like that. No, I am not a housekeeper. But I think explaining those things directly to her, a first-time mom, helped her recognize she wanted more than just a babysitter.[/quote]
