[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked for a family with two children and brought my 1 year old as well. I charged $16/hour. I was the best nanny they ever had. I have tons of experience with kids, a great education and a dedication to children. I never put my kid first. I re-arranged my child's schedule to work with the other kids. They got an energetic, engaging, loving and hard working nanny...I was also a SAHM. Most of my SAHM friends are so wonderful with their kids. They have a knack for spending quality time with children. So, that's why sometimes (not always) a SAHM can provide great childcare. Why would you not pay for that? [/quote] You went to your employer's house and fit your child into the lives of your charges, not the other way 'round. You and these SAHMs are selling two different products, hence the difference in rates. There's considerably less control over the kind of care your kid gets in someone else's house. [/quote]
