[quote=Anonymous]And one more thing. After doing some research I found that nannies in my area with my level of experience typically start at $16 for two children, and recieve additional money for cleaning, laundry, driving, and meal prep. I am still making just $14.25, and I'm made to feel like I am very overpaid. And I have to listen to MB constantly complain about how broke they are, but then watch as they spend frivolously on high end clothing and housewares, and do expensive cosmetic renovations to their home. I know that they are free to do as they please with their money, but it makes me feel unappreciated and expendable when she acts like it is a burden to pay me each week, and does everything in her power to keep me under 35 hours.

And while I'm on the topic, I was promised a minimum of 32hrs, and if I have 31 in and she really doesn't need me for the last hour, she will still make me sit at her house and watch them eat dinner, or put away dishes, or do some chore that is not my responsibility for that hour if I want to be paid for it! I once had to stay for an hour while her friend and her kids came over for a play date at the end of my shift. I sat and watched as they all ate pizza and wasn't even offered any, cleaned up the kids plates, and was then told I could leave. I felt so bad about myself and felt that I must have looked like a servent to her friend. [/quote]
