For a nanny

[WWY]

Form the HNW families. How much would you pay per day for a nanny!?
Currently getting £260 per day.

What is HNW?

high-net-worth...

£260 a day isn't bad money. £20 - £26 ph depending on a 10 or 12hr day. How many children do you care for? Live in or out? Lots of variables. I assume you agreed to the salary when you took the job? When are you due a pay review? How experienced/qualified are you?

I'm 20 years qualified NNEB and Montessori. It's one child. 9 hours per day.
I know it's good. Just wondering what other Nannie's get or how much families are willing to pay. Just curious.

Sorry for the typo. *From

Around £30 h/£5200 month/£60000 a year.

Few on MN can pay this for 9 hours a day childcare for one child.

Ask other nannies of rich people if you think you are underpaid.

Sorry are you 20 years old or you did your NNEB 20 years ago? I'm a bit confused. 🤣

I don't feel underpaid. I just wondered what the going rate was. I'm on £27. Thank you for your input, it's helpful.

Sorry, 20 years experience. The NNEB is non existent anymore. It's now called the DCE. That's how old I am!

I mean, nurses with 20 years experience are working 12 hour shifts for a lot less……….

Yes. I'm aware of that. I don't think OP will have a lot of response on MN.

The NNEB ended in 1994. 31 years ago.

...and???

completely irrelevant

@ItTook9Years @MumChp
I studied for years and got 10 A grades. I came top of my class and also studied for a masters in child mental health and Montessori training. So I'm well qualified for the role and not degrading nurses or any other job. It's the role I chose. Some families want professionals rather than local nurseries or childminders.

Are you suggesting nursery staff and childminders aren't professionals?

Nurseries and CM are professionals.

You have a job because rich people opt for a more convient solution for childcare - and a nanny really is!

@EbbandTheWanderingHearts no not saying that at all. It's different training that's all.

@MumChp I know that. I didn't say they weren't. It's different training. Some parents don't like nurseries. It's the difference between Norland or local authority if you like. Of course the staff will have different training.
I'm not Norland but my maters is the equivalent.

When I left school, a few years after 1994, I was offered the choice to do the NNEB or an NVQ.

Good for you but you are very well paid according to your training and few parents are able to go this way. I think MN is the wrong place to ask about you pay.

I am NNEB trained with 32 years experience and I currently work in a nursery so, no, not necessarily different training. I have nannied for HNW families, titled families, regular families plus worked in nurseries. London nannies get paid a premium. Nannying pays better than nursery work. I have met amazing nursery nurses and shit nannies. There's good and bad in every profession. You ask about salaries. A quick look on nannyjob would tell you the going rate for London nannies. Not sure if you're looking for people to say "Wow! You're well paid" or "That's awful. We pay our nanny £100k for 6hr days." You're on decent money. What does it matter what others are paid?

The going rate for 'normal' net worth families is about £20-25 an hour in London. I don't know what the HNW families offer. I'd be interested to know, although I do usually avoid those kinds of jobs.

What?!?!

Are you saying different people do different jobs and get paid different amounts?!

I don't believe it!

A lot of places referred to courses as being equivalent to the NNEB but it wasn't.

Do you get any other benefits alongside the salary? Private health care, car, gym membership or free accommodation for example? They seem to be standard when working for HNW.
