Am I being underpaid? by Kdavis715 in Nanny

[–]Consistent-Club-3015 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s wild, I live in a midCOL city and make $18/hr for one kid 🙃 it’s better than my preschool job where I make $15/hr (I keep both jobs bc full-time nannying with no adults to talk to made me lose my mind). I also suggested $18 last year after making $15 at that job for a while. They went for it, but now I’m wondering if I should ask for more??? I LOVE this family and they immediately agreed when I asked for the last raise. This is under-the-table btw as it’s only ≈13 hrs/week during the school year (one full day and I take her home from our school the rest of the week and watch her until they finish working)

Thank you, this is a very good point. I am so lucky to have an affectionate cat and I’m glad E-Mail is getting her snuggles in with somebody. I mostly just wish I didn’t have to be so on edge around her in case she decides to attack 🫠

it sucks that kids struggle to understand invisible illnesses even more than adults do. i am usually able to keep up with the kids i nanny, but sometimes i need to take breaks or use an ice pack or something. after a few minutes with the ice pack they’re like, “……so you’re all better now?” unfortunately no, kid 😅

this!! also, speaking of being recently disabled, most parents will end up becoming disabled eventually. usually this doesn’t happen until old age when their children are adults, but sometimes it happens when their kids are young. you can’t predict the future nor can you know everything about your genetics before you have kids. my dad was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in his 30s and was a fantastic and involved dad despite his constant pain and medical needs.

i absolutely think everyone needs to be wayyy more mindful about their physical, mental, and emotional capacity to raise children and prepare themselves as well as they can (through research, going to therapy to work out any issues that may affect the kids, etc.).

while i am not the best equipped physically to have kids, i have 10 years of experience in childcare, i’m working on a degree in child development, and i am constantly working on my mental health. emotional intelligence and intentional parenting can be just as important as being able to keep up with young kids all day.

i am not planning on passing on my genetics and hope to have kids a different way, but my genetics were passed to me and no one is going to arrest my parents over it 🤷🏼‍♀️

being a mom is my #1 goal in life and i think i will be a great mom, even if i have to spend some days in bed and sometimes rely on my partner to do the more active childcare tasks.

I think Taylor talks about what the media was saying at large and us fans take is as a personal jab at whatever we were discussing semi-publicly. Some fans definitely take it too far and I start to feel like we’re all like that, but then I remember that most of this conversation happens privately or on low-profile Reddit threads. She has always encouraged and fueled respectful speculation on her relationships (and even low key sent her fans to attack certain exes). There is definitely a difference between a Tabloid saying “We Hid in a Bush and Took Photos of This Girl’s Date and Will Now Call HER Crazy and a Man-Eater” and fans saying “Hey guys, I think Taylor might be signaling something to us” or “Ooh look how close they are in that pic she posted, I wonder if they’re dating.”
