[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you doctors or attorneys be willing to reduce your fees in order to make your services more affordable to lower income families? Maybe the grocery store should lower the cost of it's goods for them too.[/quote] Straw man, no one said anyone should decrease their rates. Maybe just try and not ridicule people trying to scrape by though.[/quote] I'm actually impressed that you know that term, as most don't. I'm not ridiculing anyone. I am barely scraping by...so I get it. The situations presented in this thread involve people looking for their own nanny. Not a nanny share. Not in-home daycare. Not daycare. They want their own nanny for $200 per week. It's the ridiculous entitlement of some parents that people are complaining about, not those who just want a safe place for their children to go while they're working. Extreme low balling occurs so often. I have seen and have been offered so many ridiculously low-paying jobs by people who think they deserve the convenience of a professional, in-home nanny. These are usually the people who want the nanny to have an ECE degree, 10 years of experience and fluency in 5 languages...all for the low, low price of $1000/month. They also want you to clean every inch of their home and drive their children everywhere with no compensation. This has nothing to do with honest, hardworking parents who are realistic about what type of childcare they can afford. [/quote]
