[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, some of you posters are wrong and some are right. I feel there are many nannies who take this job seriously and can earn $20 and more. Now, what I'd like to know is, if your making $20 an hr for 1 child, what exactly are your duties. I'm in the DC area (Capitol Hill) and there are nannies here that make $22+ (primarily in a share), so they say. The funny thing is, I honestly believe this rate is reasonable in a share, but, when I ask them what types of things they do with the children, it's not much. I bring my own supplies for arts and crafts, mad a small rice box to bring to work,  download lesson plans for learning letters, numbers, colors, trips on metro, things such as that. Not just take kids to the playground, play dates or to the library!

I think those of you who judge that a nanny should only make this amount or say what someone is paying is too much, need to mind their on damn business. It should be  based on what the nanny is bringing to your family. Parents should never be discussing the salary they pay their nanny with any other parent, because every nannies duties, hours and level of experience is different![/quote]
