[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know any fast food workers who make $40,000 a year, never mind 65K. As often as you keep saying there aren't any special skills a nanny needs, the fact is there are things that are required of nannies beyond just showing up and being a cog in the machine (like an underpaid fast food/retail/office worker). There might not be official testing or licensure processes, but that doesn't make it a low skill job either.[/quote]

Do you realize that while defending nannying, you are putting down those who work in retail or fast food?

FYI, you can work your way up to a managerial position in a fast food restaurant. When you are working in someone's home rather than a company, there is no where to work your way up to. You can luck out and find a well paying job, but that is not the norm. We have seen numerous threads about nannies who endure financial and emotional abuse from their MB/DB's and obviously there is no HR to answer to, so you put up with it until you can find another job and hope you don't get screwed over again.

Like it or not, nannying does fall into the same category as other low paying jobs that don't require an education. That is the reality and that is why people may "diss" nannying.[/quote]
