Stop looking; or even better, why you don't become a SHM. Because every single nanny will be asking for fair benefits and get paid 52 weeks at year; all paid guaranteed hours. So be realistic. And no a diva nanny as you call them; is taking advantage of you. They are just asking what they worth. Sorry for you if you don't live in the real life in 2022. I feel sorry for you that you don't appreciate what a nanny will bring to your family. You should learn from the wonderful parents, who really appreciate and value their nanny.

Easy. Do Not hire a nanny. No nanny in this world deserve to have an employe like you. Clearly you can not afford it and you value their work. Go for a day care. You will see the quality of care and different between a nanny and a day care.

I make mid six figures annually. I can afford one, but that doesn’t mean I should be taken advantage of by diva nannies who think they deserve CEO benefits with a GED.
So who is forcing you to hire a nanny?! Stay home with your own kid or send him to daycare.
And do you really think a guaranteed wage is a CEO benefit?!

Clearly you know nothing about medicine. I went to an “on shore” medical school, but that doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter where you get your DO or MD from.
You’re a joke, OP.

Yes, they generally get guaranteed hours because they are, by law, hourly workers instead of a weekly salary. Everyone needs to know their weekly salary.
And you’re not a “nanny parent”, OP! You’re a nanny employer (and my guess is that won’t be for long).
Not all nannies have degrees though, yet they all expect to be paid big bonuses and nickel and dime their employers acting like they’re a gift from God.
Oh for God’s sake, stop! They care for our children when we aren’t able to. If that’s not a gift from God, I don’t know what is.

By “corporate benefits” do you mean a living wage with vacation and sick leave? I think that’s pretty reasonable. And the great thing is that you aren’t required to hire a nanny if you don’t want to - a pretty amazing setup. BTW, you should explore what current companies are paying “low skill workers”. You can easily apply and get a job making $18-20 an hour at a coffee shop (before tips) with benefits like 2 weeks paid leave plus sick leave and health insurance (at a better rate than most nanny employees provide). If you are still confused, maybe check out Econ 101 concepts like supply and demand to understand market dynamics. I find it odd a doctor making mid 6 figures has an issue with a nanny making $48-58k but I guess a troll has to troll…

Our nanny isn’t unskilled, dear. And I don’t think you understand what “corporate benefits” actually are.
So don’t hire a nanny. You sound like a daycare parent anyway.
