[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you so much. These are great ideas.  I know she wants to get a GED and we can pay for a course and perhaps a bonus.  I will talk to her and get her ideas.  I want to be fair.  She truly is a great person and nanny. [/quote]

You truly cannot afford a $1.00 an hour raise? She has been with you for a long resredgiven you reliable and trusted childcare and you cannot give her a token raise.  Cheap.  [/quote]

OP can't afford $1 an hour, but she can send her nanny to college lol. Good story.[/quote]

College?  No, OP said GED, ie. the test that certifies that someone has basic competence, supposedly equivalent to a high school diploma.[/quote]

And you don't think educating an undocumented nanny to pass a GED amount to the equivalent of college? It ain't gonna be cheap.[/quote]

Did you graduate from high school? Your reading comprehension needs some work. A GED is the equivalent of a high school diploma. It has nothing to do with college, and the cost is not comparable. [/quote]

So you think it's a negligible cost to find somebody to teach an undocumented nanny with no education for years worth of American high school? [/quote]

1) When did OP say her nanny was undocumented?
2) There are free classes and prep materials for the GED exam offered at libraries and literacy centers
3) The average cost of the exam is $120. The actual cost depends on the state in which OP is located
4) Yes I think $120 is negligible compared to what OP would pay for a $1/hour raise for her nanny, while at the same time having a GED could change her nanny's life
5) Feel free to exit the thread now
[/quote]

Some reading comprehension would help you. Op said her nanny needs GED classes, in other words she is far removed from being prepared to sit for the exam.[/quote]
