In Higienópolis, Nannies Go Viral by Creating a Salary Table of Up to R$ 8 Thousand Monthly. The Movement, Born in WhatsApp Groups, Reflects the Growing Appreciation and Professionalization of Child Caregivers in Brazil
In a country where the average income hovers around R$ 3.4 thousand, according to Pnad, some professionals are standing out financially for a curious reason. In Higienópolis, a wealthy neighborhood in São Paulo, nannies have started to go viral on social media by announcing positions with salaries of up to R$ 8 thousand monthly.
Table Among Nannies and Appreciation of the Profession
The movement emerged among caregivers who frequent Praça Buenos Aires. In WhatsApp groups, they decided to create a type of “fixed table” with values ranging from R$ 7 thousand to R$ 8 thousand for eight-hour daily shifts, on a 5×2 schedule.
The initiative gained momentum as many professionals began to demand recognition and better working conditions.

High Demand and a More Qualified Profile
According to data from CAGED, formal hiring of nannies — that is, with signed contracts — increased by 73% between August of last year and July of this year.
This growth reflects not only the appreciation of the category but also the higher demands from families.
A report from Jornal do Brás highlighted that the market is looking for professionals with more experience and even educational qualifications.
