[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you arrive at the 15-25% deduction for bring your child, PP? Why should it not be 50% as in a normal nanny share? Especially since MB is functioning as a host family in a share?[/quote]

Look, anyone can charge whatever they want. They will either eventually have an attractive offer within a "reasonable" time period, or not. Some may then choose to reconsider their fees, and some may decide to opt for something else altogether.

Stop trying to nail down your personal views on what every nanny is allowed to charge. You are just mad that some parents can afford higher priced nannies, and you can't or won't.[/quote]
Look, if anyone could charge whatever they wanted to, this forum would not exist.  No one would ask questions about rates or their underpinnings. Every conversation would unfold like this:

- Why do you charge $X an hour?
 - Because I wanna.

There is either a rhyme and reason to what nannies charge, or there isn't. If there isn't, then credentials, experience and skills of different nannies do not matter, because the only factor that determines the rate is the consent of the parties. Nothing else matters.

It's silly to trot out jealousy as an explanation.  You might as well say that nannies are jealous of their employers because they make more money. Or some other silly thing. [/quote]
