$19/hr is not at all bad. particularly when PP did not say WHERE she is located nor for how many hours they used the share.

If 19 an hour is good for you doing a nanny share, that's all that really matters. For me, it would not be acceptable.

It just means that your rate is higher. It doesn't mean any nanny charging less than you is mediocre.

No, she was an excellent infant nanny with 17 yrs of experience.

Why don't we hear more often from mb's about amazing nannies on this forum?

I am not sure why you think that, people often post stories about their beloved nannies. Look into the nanny ads, lots of families aging out of nanny care want to find new jobs for their wonderful nannies.

...and this has absolutely nothing to do with what the OP asked.

Thanks so much for your answer.
