[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good quality nannies make between $20-$25; the problem is most people here can't really afford nannies and so the confusion starts. They hire glorified babysitters and expect things to run as they would with a professional nanny. That's not how it works. The people here who are paying $15 and such are people who shouldn't even have nannies; they are barely breaking the income bracket that nannies are mostly used in. and often time, the MB is JUST making enough to cover the nanny salary and they end up living off of DH's 60K yearly income alone. If you're a professional nanny you'll find a professional job and make anywhere from $20-$25 no problem. [/quote] I wonder how you explain then the preponderance of happy nanny employers in the reported $14-$18 range? Is it your theory that these nannies should be charging more (because there is an unexplored pool of $20-$25 jobs waiting for them), or that these parents don't know what a good nanny is, and are therefore happy with what they get?yes [/quote]
