[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No advice, just a comment:. You are crazy![/quote]

No, OP is not crazy.  This is the future, PP.  Now that we know how important the first three years of life are in shaping the intelligence of a child, the future is the educated, teacher nanny.  As more parents are desirous and willing to pay for the college graduate in Early Childhood Development or Education, the more young women will move into the field and become nannies.  [/quote]

You expect all of this for $20/hr?  Ha!  [/quote]

Who said anything about $20 an hour?!  OP here and we expect to pay on the $28 to $30 range.

Friends have a brilliant nanny who has a masters degree and a former career as a teacher and writer.  She is 58, amazing health and energy, and became a nanny four years prior to being hired by my friend.  We want someone like her.  She is paid $28 an hour now (started at $27 two years ago) and my friends pay her healthcare insurance.  Another friend has a good nanny, a recent college graduate in Early Childhood Education, who has nannied prior to her college education.  She is in her 20's and is paid $28 an hour to start.  She isn't as good as the first nanny I mentioned but still good.

Both were found on care.com but after long, exhaustive searches. Both not only placed carefully worded ads but also searched profiles to find these nannies.  I was hoping not to have to go thru that but will if need be.  [/quote]

I think your friends have been EXTREMELY lucky to find the nannies they have at $28/hr.   [/quote]
