[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would like to ask a question in regards to nanny's wages.  If a nanny does not speak English at all and does not drive, does that usually translates into a lower wage?  We live in the North Bethesda area.  We currently have a nanny who is good but does not speak any English, does not drive, and is not very professional. We pay $17/hour for one toddler on the books.   I am starting to feel a little annoyed as I have to miss work to drive them to places.   We also end up giving her a ride to the metro every day as we know buses are unrealiable/inconvinient in our area.  Since she does not speak English and we do really care about her, we end up helping her out with different errands.   I guess I am feeling a little tired of paying her as much as we pay and then spending time on driving her around, calling to places for her, etc.    Pls., share what you think[/quote]
My apologies if anyone finds this question offensive, but how does an American family, rich enough to reside North in Bethesda, MD, hire a "nanny", who "does not speak any English"?[/quote]
