[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is just pissed off that she can't find an easy job that doesn't require much work. The employer sets the job description and you are free to decline the job IF its offered to you. You don't get to dictate what an employer includes in the job description. Nannies don't provide superior care than SAHM parents or even daycare. The value of a nanny is that a child gets more individualized attention than in a group setting, the child gets to stay in their home environment, the child can have smaller play dates with friends when they are older, the parents don't need to take time off from work every time the child has a cold, AND light house working chores like all laundry, unloading the dishwasher, and grocery shopping gets done during the day so the parents can spend the evenings and weekend time with their child. The nannies on this thread are just plain lazy. If they cared one ounce about child development they would quickly acknowledge that its preferable for the parents to be spending their non-woring hours engaging the kids not doing the laundry. Instead these nannies zealously guard their multi hour break to surf the web and watch TV during the day with a bunch of bull shit. [/quote] A nanny's job is not to ensure that parents have nothing to do in the evening. If you don't want to have anything to do in the evenings, hire out those tasks, but don't try to lump them all into one for the low low price of $15/hour. That's what is BS. Is the plumber lazy because he doesn't also fix your roof? The gardener lazy because they don't wash your car? The maid lazy because she doesn't cook your meals? A nanny provides childcare. Why some of you don't get that is beyond me. [/quote]
