[quote=Anonymous]I also don't understand the OP's point. Nannying is very important, but the bar for entry to the profession is low. For every person who chose to be a professional nanny after getting a college degree or working their a$$ off learning about child development, etc., there are 15 women (at least) who fell into nannying because of a love for children, some child care skills, and the fact that there is no educational/training/certification barrier to entry to the field. This also means the quality of jobs is similar. For every job that's structured like a professional job (ample PTO, healthcare, holidays, annual reviews/raises, paid legally, etc.) there are many that are structured more casually. Both parties, the employers and the employed, have to seek out the right fit. We can argue about what nannies deserve, but with more benefits and higher salaries come greater expectations, too, for things like reliability. [/quote]
