[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]pp you are utterly confused if you think you are not "the help". you are the help. Regardless of all the bs  "I am family" they are so nice to me yadda yadda yadda, at the end of the day, you are paid to do a job, therefore you exchange "help" for money, just like a housekeeper which I am assuming you would refer to as "the help". I hate nannies that think they are above other people!!!!!!!!!!

Youre missing some pretty obvious social and historic context behind the phrase "the help" here. Don't get all snarky if you don't know what you're talking about. There is a HUGE difference between being a household employee who does her duties and being the help and getting completely taken advantage of. [/quote]

It doesn't matter if you are called the help or an employee.  Your job is your job and if it is beneath you, get in another line of work.  Your job is caring for a child via working in someone's home.[/quote]

Call me the help if you want, but if you expect me to do chores and cleaning 24/7 in a 55 hour week, you better be prepared to pay me as if I work 24/7. And even at $15/hour with 8 hours not paid for "sleep time" each day, that will cost you $2,220 per week, OT included.
