[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So if you know you're far above average (and you're used to be compensated accordingly,) don't bother speaking with parents offering "competitive" pay?

In the DC area, average nanny pay is in the $17-20/hour range. 
The better nannies can earn $25-30+.[/quote]

We pay our Nanny 16.00 an hour. She is pretty awesome.   Of course you can find nannies that exclusively cater to the very rich (see 25.00+). That is just crazy, but if you have the money.... why not spend it.[/quote]

I think $16/hr to keep someone child alive is crazy. Why would an educated and experienced nanny accept that. Sounds like she might be awesome but not very smart. Who wants a dummy watching their kids? Oh you do. [/quote]

Most nannies don't have a master's degree or even a college degree.[/quote]

Perhaps but that’s seems to be changing.  I see more and more women becoming nannies with degrees in education and early childhood development.

But regardless, competitive pay is slightly above average pay.  It can mean nothing else.  [/quote]
