[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I make $17 an hour and I don't have much experience. I'm fresh out of college. Just because you're bitter doesn't mean everyone else is. I'm perfectly content with this job for the time being. Like I said, it pays the bills. I'm just trying to say that so many nannies try to turn what started as a convenient job for high school and college kids into a lifelong career. It was never meant for that. I'm not sure why anyone would willingly choose to stay in this situation. I'm happy for you if you're paid well and love the family you work for. But stop settling because of comfort and convenience and have some aspirations in life![/quote] You may certainly speak for yourself, but that's about it. Sorry. My salary/benefits are better than preschool teachers. Am very pleased that I get to follow my dreams of working with babies/young children, and make a good living. Lucky me and lots of other nannies to. [/quote] +1 You can nanny in the interim before something else. Others of us returned to nannying after finding a high-powered job wasn't as fulfilling. This notion that unless you dream of being a CEO you can't consider yourself successful is bunk. I spend the majority of my waking hours at work - I need to love my job and it needs to pay me well enough that I can enjoy my leisure time too. If nannying does that for me, who are you to say I don't have goals and aspirations? I do, for your information, they just aren't work related.[/quote]
