Age isn't a factor if purchased on the ACA exchange.
Rate are based on age among other factors.
Not if purchased from the ACA exchange during open enrollment. Private insurance - yes. Obamacare - no.
WRONG! The ONLY differential in ACA rates IS AGE. If you qualify for a subsidy, and it's more than the difference if you are in a higher age group, then you wouldn't know it, but the premium for older people is higher, sometimes much higher.
From Healthcare.gov:
How premiums are set
Under the health care law, insurance companies can account for only 5 things when setting premiums.
Age: Premiums can be up to 3 times higher for older people than for younger ones.
Location: Where you live has a big effect on your premiums. Differences in competition, state and local rules, and cost of living account for this.
Tobacco use: Insurers can charge tobacco users up to 50% more than those who don’t use tobacco.
Individual vs. family enrollment: Insurers can charge more for a plan that also covers a spouse and/or dependents.
Plan category: There are five plan categories – Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Catastrophic. The categories are based on how you and the plan share costs. Bronze plans usually have lower monthly premiums and higher out-of-pocket costs when you get care. Platinum plans usually have the highest premiums and lowest out-of-pocket costs.
States can limit how much these factors affect premiums.

I don’t think that’s an uncommon assumption, unfortunately. That’s why you see all these posts by nannies who get offered laughably low wages or just a shitty deal in general, and then the parents being shocked that their applicant didn’t jump at their “awesome” offer.
Says a greedy nanny. Seriously, if you want to make 60k a year, maybe get some qualifications
I just want to clarify a couple things.
1. I don’t know where you pulled 60k a year from, but it certainly didn’t come from me. I’m not expecting to make anywhere near that much.
2. I have qualifications and experience. They may not be enough to warrant your 60k a year, but I know enough that I shouldn’t be getting paid less than $15/hr, especially for multiple children. All I ask is for fairness, not to be taken advantage of.
Lots of parents don't want to do what we do. Good nannies provide a very valuable service. You deserve to be appropriately compensated.
Nannies, generally only care for the kids, and maybe kid laundry and cleaning up. A SAHP does child care, cooking, cleaning, shopping, laundry and much more. I am not sue why you say parents do want to do what you do as they do it when you are not there along with everything else that makes a house run.
