Rebekah: HA! Denver, Co is NOT accurate!
Molly: I'm a nanny in MI near Detroit, i don't make that much right now. I made more than the average when I was working in FL and I didn't make anywhere near that average when I was working in Baltimore...
Sarah Marie: No. I'm in Boise idaho and I'm shocked I make what some of the huge cities pay I would except a lot more from the largest cities
Jaynie: Hmm, If things don't work out for me in Michigan, looks like I'll be moving to California :) I am wayyyyy underpaid, it seems.
Rebecca: Mpls looks accurate (at least for what I made 3 years ago - I'm a stay at home mom now).
Roxanne: ♫Looks like Cali-forny is the place to be...♪
Bridget: Hartford is just about right. I work in a suburb of Hartford.
Kay: I am surprised Sarah...coming from Idaho its great to hear there are good families there to work for
Samantha: In Virginia Beach, between Durham and DC.. I average $550-600/ week.. that sounds about right.
Kristin: I need to become a nanny apparently. My stupid job pays less than HALF of this, and I get no joy from it what-so-ever.
Molly: Only become a nanny if children are your passion not for the money!!!
Sarah: Kay it totally just depends on the nanny, but the agency I go through only accepts families willing to pay well for a great nanny. It's def slim pickins compared to when I nannied in orange county ca but you can find a family willing to pay if u try hard enough!
Taylor:
Yes. And it explains why I still drive to DC, rather than finding a new gig in Baltimore!
Kristin: Molly, if there are women on this planet where "children AREN'T their passion" I would be surprised. Haha
Molly:
There are a lot, I just hate to see someone become a nanny or work with children for the wrong reasons
Darlene:
its around about in Boston. But I have to say I net more than they have for gross. education and experience play a part in that too!!!
Judy:
for sure
Shelby:
Doesn't how much you make depend on amount of children and hours? I make just about the amount weekly for area I work in, but...i only have one child and work 30-35 hrs a week.
Dawn:
My thought is this......I guess because I've been lucky a few times finding jobs that paid really well (last one $700/wk), that I've been living in fantasyland. As of late, I can only find jobs paying $450-550, a real reality slap.
Kari:
do we know the ackgrounds of the nannies and experience? The hours?? There is soo much to factor in regarding salary @molly there are alot of nannies that become nannies for the wrong reasons... for one many think it is easy money.. and 2 its one of the few "professional" jobs that you DONT NEED any education in to get a job... there are no "Job requirements" to be in this profession. I see lots of nannies who are nannies that shouldn't be nannies
Linda:
Chicago area pays more than is listed here.
Chrissy:
Seems about right here in Jersey...
Sarah:
LOL Kristin some people are taking this too seriously....i know if you arent a nanny for the right reasons you wont last. end of story haha
Kristin:
Took the words right out of my mouth!
Marybeth:
I work for a wonderful family that I love very much and have a husband that is technically our families' breadwinner. Yet when I averaged it out today, working for a school employee and getting paid for the time I have off for Christmas, Easter and only working part time in the summer, I make $5.30 hourly. I have a certificate in Early Childhood Education, but I do it because I LOVE those kids. They make my day brighter... especially as my own are going off to college in the fall.
Sarah Marie:
Marybeth you deserve so much more than that! I don't have a degree and I make four times that plus benefits. I Think one down fall to being a nanny is we don't value ourselves enough. As much I love children, I have to love myself too and get what I'm worth
Kari:
@marybeth,,,, you hit the nail on the head.. it isnt always about the money as being with a family you mesh with and doing a job you love.
