[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The salary ranges you see are all over the place because a nanny’s education, experience and special skills are all over the place.  You can get a no education, little experience nanny for $21.  A nanny with a college degree, teaching experience, sleep training, years of being a nanny with excellent references etc. will be much more.  [/quote] you will get qualified nannies with that rate. Qualified to me means, a few years experience with this age group,  lots of patience and initiative.  A good driver and cpr certified. I persinally dont care if you have a degree, experience means more to me.[/quote]
What about any kind of training? What good is experience if it's the wrong kind? I guess most parents don't know what constitutes competence, so how would they recognize it?

You definitely want your nanny candidates to have the long cpr/first aid training certification that daycare owners have to have.  You will get a feel when you read their resumes and you talk to them.  You get (hopefully) your feelings confirmed when you speak to their references.  You can specifically ask for candidates with experience with your child’s age group.  Former daycare or preschool teachers are always prime candidates.  [/quote]
