[quote=Anonymous]I'm in CA. I started this job at $20 an hour for one baby full time and his big brother in the am before school.  I know I am paid well. And it's under the table. However, I have a BA, I've been a preschool teacher for 5 years, 8 years of nanny experience and 16 years of parenting experience.  I bring a lot to the table. I'm wise and experienced. I give my family peace of mind. My NF family knows should there be a real emergency I will handle the situation. I assure you, that I care for any child in my care like my own.  I will return the house to you cleaner than you left it. I think of the little things. I make sure we have a back-up lovely clean at all times. I save the OJ can lids to make magnets for G'ma.  We don't watch TV and if we run to Target we discuss everything. How many Dollar Spot items can we get for $5? There's a lesson everywhere. 
I make your life easier so you can focus on your job all day. I'll run an errand, feed the dog, let in the housekeeper, separate the recyclables. I'm not beneath doing your laundry if you need me to. Treat me with respect and pay me well and I'll support your family.

And I'll be honest, if you seem cheap, I will not work for you.  I want to work in comfortable (clean) homes in a nice area. I want to push a nice stroller and I want to use a clean, safe (not a dirty hand-me-down) car seat in my car.  I want to have a well-stocked art cabinet and nice educational toys. A nanny is a luxury. Not everyone can afford one.  There are plenty of great day cares for families on a budget.
