[quote=Anonymous]I’m a live-in nanny. I’ve been hired by two families who had several rematches within a year and left the AP program; I don’t speak about every family that rematches, but I’m aware of a few reasons that are doozies! Because I live with my nf, I can often recommend ways to navigate the smaller issues that create strain between AP and HP. And I don’t think the AP program ending would be a good thing for nannies. I would mean a glut of families seeking daycare and not being able to find a placement, some families wanting to have a live-in nanny for absurd hours and rates (I get enough contacts wanting 80 hours for $75/week, I don’t want more, thanks.), and other families getting belligerent when part-time care costs soared and longevity plummeted due to competition. I also have researched the program and recommended it to several families who thought they wanted a live-in nanny, but could only afford (and really only needed) an AP.[/quote]
