[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top pay is considered $35 plus, btw. Also, if you’re seeking a Nanny make sure you aren’t expecting the Nanny to do Housekeeper’s tasks as that’s the main reason you are not attracting anyone. [/quote] This is so tiresome. People using an agency aren’t doing so because they are looking for the cheapest possible and who wants a single person housekeeper when every cleaning company has a whole team that can do the same thing in a much shorter amount of time? It’s a job with extremely low barriers to entry so to pretend that anyone with bad experience is cheap is delusional. [/quote] A lot of parents expect the nanny to do housekeeping tasks so they don’t have to pay the housemaid/housekeeper. Most DCUM parents are well known to pay below market therefore those who can afford to have FT Nannies use the agencies, agencies charged about 8%of annual nanny salary (nanny doesn’t get any$$$)from agencie other than what agreed on contract say $32/hourly on guaranteed hours plus all benefits. [/quote] And yet not every person with a bad experience with their nanny is underpaying or expecting extra work. And also I support people in quitting if they are unhappy with their wages. Some people are just bad at their job and when the only universally required qualifications are a pulse some of those people become nannies. [/quote]
