[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a 24 hr live in nanny in the DC area. I take care of 3 toddlers 96 hrs each week. I make 700 per week. I am able to live in on the days I don't work in a nice basement apartment. I am also provided a car and health insurance. Yes technically I make min wage but I am also paid to sleep.[/quote]
Do the parents ever parent?[/quote]
Yes the other 3 days each week they do. I'm the only nanny they have.[/quote]
So for four days they don't see their children? I don't get this setup.[/quote]

You are making less than minimum wage. I hope they are paying you  OT, but I doubt it.[/quote]
They travel for work 4 days per week. Yes I make min wage roughly 7.29 per hr so a few cents over. No I don't get over time because in Virginia live in nannies are not required to be paid it.[/quote]

How old are you?
What's your background? Are you here legally?[/quote]
I'm in my 30's, I have a masters degree in early childhood education. I've been a nanny for 15 years. Yes I am here legally.. I am a 6th generation American. I have not been with this family very long. My plan is to stay as long as I am needed. [/quote]
Can they afford to pay you better?[/quote]
No. and I am happy with the job. Of course getting paid more would be wonderful but 700 a week is a lot of money to me. With my last job I made 400. Of course I wasn't working 24 hrs per day.[/quote]

Nanny for 15 years, Masters degree, not illegal. Making $400 a week.

Must be in rural Alabama.[/quote]
