[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$18.75/Hr is only $39,000/yr. This is barely enough to live on after taxes. She is taking care of your childten not walking your dog. I hope she finds another job and makes enough money to have a decent life. [/quote] Plenty of people live on much less than this. Im a nanny and IMO-and probably that of many others-$18.75 is an incredibly good wage for a profession that requires no formal education/training, licensure or regulation. Teachers, with years of education, both initial and continuing, and strict performance standards sometimes do not even make this much. Nannying is a very important job, don't get me wrong, but it is becoming insane how much people are expecting to be paid for a job that, essentially, anyone could attempt to do. [/quote] Like parenting, anyone may attempt the job of caring for a child, but very few know what they're doing. Just look around. Sad.[/quote]
