[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with you on this OP. It seems there is a very strong division on here between the MomBosses vs. the Nannies and I see much of the debating over salaries. I think a lot of the people on here are having issues in their own lives and instead of talking directly to the people in real life, they instead come on this forum and take out some of their anger and frustration out on the posters on here which can be quite unfair. I think MomBosses and Nannies should all work together, but I guess there is too much of a conflict of interest here. I personally do not think so, but think of it like the Rep. vs. the Democrats. Big conflicts of interests even though the main focus should be on running an efficient government that works well for ALL people. Same for MBs and Nannies....[b]The main focus should be on raising and caring for a precious child.[/b][/quote] This is the problem a lot of MBs have. In the grand scheme of things is your job the most important thing in life to you? Are your children? What [i]is[/i] the most important part of your job to you? This is a job, albeit an important one, but a job nonetheless. We do it for money, and it becomes even more about the money the more we get the impression that we are expected to devote our lives to our families and expect nothing in return. MBs are super quick to treat us like mere disposable employees when convenient, and at other times we are doing the most important job in the world. It's hard for both sides to reconcile these ideas, but MBs are truly the ones with the most at stake. Treat your nanny like the person who has essentially volunteered to love your kid (because you do not pay her what the job is worth, just like teachers, nurses, and other undervalued jobs) and not a commodity you milk for all its worth, and you can avoid so many of the problems posted here. [/quote] Be serious please. Nannies are way more than fairly compensated. The only reason anyone gets a nanny is so they can work a job and make more money than what would go to the nanny. We aren't hiring nannies because they are so amazing, experienced, magical, etc. I could do the nannies job 10x better then her even though I am a first time mom and she has been doing this a while, but that doesn't make her job worth some astronomical amount. Nannies are just babysitters and part-time housecleaners and really their compensation should max out at around $15 an hour with 10+ years experience and it kind of disgusts me that some nannies are demanding $20+ an hour right out of college.[/quote] Go. Away. Crazy. You are part of the problem.[/quote]
