[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The trouble is in the term 'elite' which doesn't have anything to do with childcare. Nannies are not a rare and small influential power group. The bar to becoming a childcare worker is low, which is why there are too many in the market to raise nanny rates. This causes confusion. It's more accurate to say a nanny for a single child is the most expensive option for childcare, although it becomes more cost effective than a daycare with multiple children. Additionally, there isn't much a so called $20/hr nanny offers a parent than a $14/hr nanny can't that is of measurable worth, which is another reason market rates vary more by geography than anything else. Sure, some parents value some things, like ECE credits or experience, but there is no objective measure that shows that having that experience makes a nanny worth more per hour. [/quote] The confusion is your not understanding the difference between a nanny and a sitter.[/quote]
