Feel like you are in a position to ask for a raise? Then ask for it and make your case. No reason to rant like a rabid animal.
A replacement parent?! A nanny is childcare. She keeps them safe until their parent gets home. She is not a parent of any kind.
Nor is she a housekeeper! Keep your chores off my nanny hands.
So, as long as the kids don't hurt themselves you don't feel like you need to do anything with them....nice.

yes, many daycares are open but guess what... Most parents are afraid to send kids there, and many, many will keep kids home this fall. So, pandemic-minded nannies are in great demand.

We hired our former daycare teacher and she's now making more with us than she did at daycare and it's quieter and easier and safer.

If the only requirement is to keep the child safe, not interact, entertain, feed, take care of then minimum wage is plenty.
