140 a week is good in my area too but for GROUP half day care not for nanny care especially care that is around and with a parent visable and present at any time.
I used to get paid $20 an hour as a nanny doing less than what she is asking. I was to play with the child from about 9 to 1 pm 3 days a week. All we did was play and have lunch together. Sure the kid learned a lot but I didn't have to document anything or work on a specific letter sound every day. Oh and the parent was close by most of the time and able to come back ASAP if I called for help.
