A nanny's rate includes so much more than what you see.

What you see:

☆ Meals prepared
☆ Nappies changed
☆ School pick-ups
☆ Story time
☆ Arts & crafts
☆ Trips to the park
☆ Daily routines

What you don't see:

☆ Constant risk assessment
☆ Preventing accidents before they happen
☆ Reading children's cues and responding accordingly
☆ Adapting to changing moods and needs
☆ Emotional regulation & co-regulation
☆ Conflict resolution
☆ Supporting confidence and independence
☆ Teaching life skills through everyday moments
☆ Anticipating needs before they become problems
☆ Creating a calm, secure environment
☆ Making hundreds of decisions throughout the day

A nanny's rate also reflects:

☆ Experience
☆ Professional judgment
☆ Patience
☆ Reliability
☆ Consistency
☆ Flexibility
☆ Knowledge of child development
☆ The ability to stay calm under pressure
☆ Individualized care

People often see the tasks.

They don't always see the responsibility.

It's easy to compare hourly rates.

It's much harder to compare everything those rates include.

A nanny's rate reflects far more than the tasks you can see.

It also reflects the responsibility you can't.

I do love all the children I meet. They are so kind and pure. A little man made me a flower bouquet with his fantastic 9 flower drawings 🥰

A great First day of the summer holidays for us. We took a trip to the zoo and saw the sloth out and moving around for the first time in years. What did you do??
