[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies will be considered unskilled labor until there is a standard entry point and education level to the field. Hasn't happened yet, probably won't happen, and many many nannies  are stubbornly against any sort of formalized entry point that would allow for the unskilled labor tag to be dropped.

At the same time  many want to be seen as professionals.

The end result is pseudo professionalism  multiple agencies , organizations and training sessions that take money from nannies but do very little to further the profession. These organizations can get away with it[/quote]
I don't think INA shares its finances with its membership (isn't it a legal non-profit?) but I suspect it has a very big account, considering what it charges for membership, not to mention lots of additional avenues of income.

Why hasn't INA taken the lead on the unskilled nanny problem? Shouldn't it be a priority for their nannies to have basic employment protections?

In every state (NY, CA, MD) where domestic workers have won employment protections, nanny agencies have never supported their efforts. I know some agencies have told their nannies not to participate. If this information is wrong, please enlighten us. [/quote]
