Inspired by another thread about how much people earn. Plenty of nannies earning £50-£60k per year apparently and one on £120k!
Our nanny has just left us (youngest about to start reception, thank goodness) and we were paying her nearly £50k for 8:30am-6:30pm Mon-Fri. She would also pick up quite a bit of extra money babysitting evenings and weekends L. She didn’t even have to do anything from 9-12 each morning while my youngest was at nursery - and then only had my youngest to look after until school pick-up time when she had my eldest too. And nannies these days are very reluctant to help out with any cleaning or ironing so she really was doing nothing much at all in those hours.
She was lovely but has no qualifications and is in her early thirties.
It seems wrong to me that nannies are getting paid more than most teachers when they don’t need any qualifications. What do you think?!
