[quote=Anonymous]Maybe it's just because I'm in the Boston area, but I know so many nannies with master's degrees, mostly in education or psychology. They too have student loans to pay off! Simple put, and yes this will make me sounds like a bitch, but if you can't afford $45K to $50 for a basic nanny, then maybe it's not within your means to have one. Yes, first year lawyers have crazy hours! Yes, you need the flexibility, so a nanny is needed. However, that convenience come at a price. It's like buying something from 7-11 on Christmas. You know it'd cost you only $1 if you got it from the grocery store, but since it's not open and you need the convenience, you are stuck paying $4 for it. If you can't afford a nanny, the most expensive of all child care, don't get one. Or be willing to have very low expectations when it comes to who you hire. You get what you pay for, simple as that.[/quote]
