[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not sure if this is the correct forum to post, but being close to going back to work and working the options, we are wondering how high HHI is needed to afford a nanny? We will do everything above board, while potentially offering perks such as benefits and health insurance. I keep seeing threads saying a poster can’t afford a nany, and I’m curious. Do nannies also only prefer to work with wealthy families?

In my case I do prefer to work for well-off families.  I have also worked for extremely wealthy families and that wasn't for me (huge house staff and body guards).  But families who earn a lot and are easy with money and my ability to spend some of that money on their child is definitely the way to go for me.  My employers allowed me to set up a new outdoor play area for my charge and I can enroll her in any class I think will benefit her.  I have no budget on books or groceries for my charge or art supplies.  And I go on vacations with them.  Iceland, Cuba and Costa Rica in the last three years. It is just easier to have freedoms like this in a position.

But hiring and keeping an educated and experienced nanny is expensive and not for every family or budget.   [/quote]
