[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp - I am the one you replied to but dear lord this is why this board is just ridiculously antagonistic at this point. Of course OP is clueless about going rates. That is clear from her post. But she does not seem malicious - just uninformed. And she came here trying to GET informed. No need to paint her out as an evil cheapskate for not realizing that what she had in mind simply will not fly. She even seemed to readily accept that mid-thread. Jeez. I understand jumping all over MBs who know what is standard but try to take advantage of Nannies anyway. What blows my mind is how some nanny posters here treat most potential new MBs who lost here trying to get advice with the same sort of criticism and hostility. Get a grip. [/quote]

I get what you're saying, but even an uninformed person should recognize its going to cost more than what you'd pay a kid to mow your lawn, to properly care for your child especially for a few hours each day. It really is just common sense, so I honestly don't believe for a moment that OP didn't know she was being cheap. Maybe she didn't know how cheap, but she was being cheap. Its insulting, and that's why you see nannies get angry and defensive. If someone was hiring people to do your job for half your salary, it might make you laugh or scoff at first. But the hundredth, or thousandth time it will make you angry. [/quote]
