Another key is actually being worth $17 for 1 baby. [/quote]
Indeed. I can't imagine leaving my baby with a person who wasn't worth *at least* $17/hr. Apparently, each of us has different standards and goals.[/quote]

I can't imagine leaving my baby with a person who wasn't worthy of being left with my baby.  I found candidates at the $17 to $20 range who, regardless of experience, just weren't people I wanted helping to raise her.  I also found candidates at the $15 price point who were worthy of the job and then some.  There just isn't a consistent correlation between rates and quality in the nanny field.

If my child grows up to conduct herself like the nanny we hired at $15/hour, I will be very pleased.  That's more than I can say about some $17-$20 nannies.[/quote]
True, some people don't know how to successfully hire help. However, in every profession, you get what you pay for.  There's no special exception just for nannies. You still get what you pay for, unless the nanny is a relative or close friend, maybe.[/quote]
Are you are bargain in your profession, PP?
Why?[/quote]
