After graduating from Spelman College in 2015, Brieonna Johnson knew she wanted to work with children.
She applied for teaching jobs, but the pay was low and she was worried about paying off her student loans. Although she had worked as a part-time nanny in college, she hadn’t considered that she could turn it into a full-blown career. But then she came across a nannying agency in Atlanta.
In 2016, Johnson found a live-in position with a family in Atlanta and fell in love with the work and the kids. Being able to live with the family was a major draw as she’s been able to avoid spending money on rent.
For Johnson, the best part is being able to form long-term relationships with the families. “It’s really rewarding. I have a great bond with both the kids and the parents,” she says. “With some families, I really feel like a family member. And it’s great being a part of the kids’ lives and tag-teaming with the parents to help raise the next generation.”

She works from 5:30 AM to noon on most days and then goes to a second job.
I do not believe she has an income like this one.
We paid our non-live in nanny here in Texas only about $52,000 a year 7 years ago. She was a blessing and an angel for our kids.
I can only imagine that you earn $175,000 as a nanny if you’re a naughty nanny.
So ...
Med School and an $118,000 salary.
or be a Nanny and earn $175,000 with most of your living expenses paid for by your employer.
Further note that this nanny hires a private chef for herself on a regular basis.
“Brieonna Johnson knew she wanted to work with children.”
Sounds like she needed to find a man. I guess if that’s what people will pay for a nanny, good for her. These days, the skills are probably hard to find.
” She was a blessing and an angel for our kids.”
I would say the same for our daughter’s nanny.
The pay is twice as much to keep quiet about it
A long tradition in the south. They used to call the Black help ‘mammies’ instead of ‘nannies’, however.
Teachers and doctors have been known to want to work with children; it doesn’t always have to do with one’s love life.
Fat bottom girls.
I was teaching school in 1972 and moved my family to Alabama. I gave strong thought o doing the Nanny thing. As a male with a Masters degree, I had a couple of good options to earn 15,000 annual. Teaching Fairfax, VA only paid 10,000 for a Masters degreed teacher.
Nice work if you can get it. Heard it before?
I seriously doubt that's the case in this instance.
Lot of easy ways to make money off of rich people. Our neighbor moves to SC every winter for 5 months. He has a full time house sitter. He pays her $3500 month and pays all the utilities, cable, insurance etc her food etc. Her duties are to keep the house clean, snow shoveled etc. When he moves up North she moves down to his house in SC and watches it. Her only expense is her car and health insurance.
15k in Alabama in 72 was pretty good money. That’s back when a buck was a buck.
Really? You don’t say!
Yup.
I guess the globalists and Chamber-of-Commerce types are right. Who needs to actually make anything in America to produce wealth? We can all get rich watching each-others kids or having others cook our meals.
From the pictures, they must pay her by the pound.
That blew me away.
She has student loans and CC debt (although not much), but hires a private chef.
