[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I interviewed a LOT of nannies, at a wide range of pay requests, and never encountered any with the "special training" people allude to on here. I am curious what this special training is. I have heard of nanny training centers in Britain but not here. A few short courses here and there doesn't seem like special training to me. Anyway, for the OP, we found a nanny we are very happy with who charges $15/hour for one family and $20/hour for two. I was not more impressed with nannies who requested more (some of them much more!), and this was after paid trial periods. I found that nannies charging less than $15/hour were generally at a lower skill level, but that is not meant as an insult to anyone making less as I am sure there is variation across areas. [/quote] I’m THE OP, I don’t agree that caregivers don’t need “specialized skills, experience and qualification to nurture, guide and promote healthy grow to little people whom are inexperience individuals. They need guidance and support to help them strive for a higher levels of development. But according to what you wrote, a caregiver just need to be a person that don’t have training or experience to nurture any developmental skills to a child, then why is pet trainer need to have special skills and training about different breed? Also why is Zoo keeper need to be train to care for wile animals, bees keeper do the same and even gardener need special train and skills on trees and flowers. Our children need the same an experience care giver that know how to nurture healthy grow, attentive to children needs, fallow parents subjections, keep children save, fallow a stablish routines. Not investing in higher quality child care for a child could result in a downfall not only for parents that may need to pay+$ to an occupational therapist for help a child to develop physical and cognitively but also for the child who can fall behind developmentally. PS: Children with special needs attend section of therapies such as speech, occupational therapy, behaviors therapy and so far. However, their caregiver should be experience and nurture to help them strive. [/quote] Well said. Thank you.[/quote]
