[quote=Anonymous]I prefer upper middle class working families. They're more down to earth and it's usually a much simpler job. My rate is my rate regardless. I do charge more for families that need more of my time or having a demanding schedule. I've only worked for one high profile/extremely wealthy family and it just wasn't worth it. My rate was $4 higher and I received great pay and bonuses and the family was nice enough but the position was not for me. No schedule and just chaos. Children weren't allowed to be outside their tiny playroom or they'd "destroy the house." Stay at home mom who heavily preferred the eldest boy, and ignored the younger ones. Fed a terrible diet despite having all the money to feed them decently. Would show up to work and be told we were leaving for a weekend trip without notice. I felt like a child herder more than a nanny. I prefer a more intimate role. Of course, that could have just been the family.[/quote]
