It's not skilled labor - there are no qualifications, certifications, or education requirements to be a nanny. So why do nannies require corporate benefits? I'm a nanny parent, a physician in private practice, and I don't even have the same benefits all these nannies are looking for. If I don't go to work, I don't make money. If I'm willing to work but there are no patients that need to be seen, I don't make money. I don't have guaranteed hours. No work? No paycheck. Nannies expect to be paid for 52 weeks of work in a year....there is no other industry where this is standard. Having a nanny is a luxury, but at the end of the day, it is unskilled labor.
Because they are taking care of your snowflakes and have to put up with moronic parents like you. Nannies, like yes hers, should be paid $100/,hr for each kid. FYI, I am not a nanny but feel sorry for them too many people, like you, do not value their very difficult and unappreciated, work.
