[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish enough of us nannies and parents would ban together to shut care.com down. There practices are illegal and unethical. I was contacted by two families for two different positions. One wanted to offer $280/week for 40 hours. The other wanted to pay $10 for 50/ hours a week, as well as major housekeeping and care of a 3 month old. I wrote them my pay rate, and reported them to care.com. Care.com goes and closes my account. What kind of business sides with families paying illegal wages? I am so livid about their practices. [/quote] If $7 is not minimum wage where you live, I get why you reported them. But why the $10 family? You may be offended at their rates but it's not illegal. They would say it's $9 per hour plus $13.5 for 10 hours of OT, which comes out to $495 for 50 hours. [/quote]
