Actually, it's even more unfortunate for all the children who get broken English babysitters. Then their parents are surprised about the speech delays.
Connect the dots, people.
I've used ESL family members for childcare. Yes, speech delays were a problem, but not a long-term one. And exposure to foreign language helps to learn new languages.
In my experience, it really depends on how it's done. It's not a given.

Of course no complaining about your amazing nanny. Ha, ha.

No need - if they advertise the position, the market will tell them.
Lots of parents are asking about infant care rates, in spite of you. Too bad for you.
They can ask away, what do I care? Just saying that no matter what they read here, they will find out what nannycare costs when they advertise the position and meet applicants they like.
Yup

Just like most other fields, there's always "a very few" at the top. The rest are average, or worse. Only the most wealthy can afford the best.

I make a flat 62k/yr caring for triplets. This is the very high end for nanny rates. I'm college educated and was born in the US. My rate is not the norm and is high.
When this job is over, I'd be a FOOL to think it will be easy to find another nanny job that pays as well. This kind of nanny pay is few and far between.
Carry on with the bullshit.
You have no clue how many nannies out there earn six figures. Most of them don't care to be interviewed by the press.
You really don't sound much like a nanny at all.
Very few. In order for a nanny to be paid six figures, she must work for someone who can afford to pay that much. That's a pretty small percentage of the population who is of childbearing age and can afford to pay that much money. Some dual income lawyers or trust fund babies. But you're talking one percenters.
More like 0.01 percenters. I am going to guess that most one percenters a) still don't make enough to pay a nanny six figures, and b) are too old to be having newborns.

The employers who pay at the top of of the pay scale usually do want a very specific sets of skills in their nanny. It is often a college education, but not always. It can also be language skills, willingness to travel extensively/have a very flexible schedule, ability to teach and/or play musical intruments, experience with special needs, etc...
Some parents look for a nanny who is trained and experienced in a particular educational philosophy, and will pay very well for it.
