Nannies in America

The reality of being a nanny in America often involves underpayment, with salaries ranging from $20,800 to $63,400 annually, leaving many living near the poverty line. Issues such as child abuse—ranging from physical harm to neglect—are alarming. The use of nanny cams raises ethical questions about privacy and consent, as footage can be misinterpreted. This piece examines these critical challenges, highlighting the need for better compensation and treatment of caregivers to ensure the safety and well-being of children.
