Nanny Shares Examples of Texts with Families Over Pay Discrepancies: 'My Jaw Dropped' (Exclusive)


Sophia Pagliuca, a 22-year-old nanny in South Carolina, shared a series of "simulated" texts to TikTok in a now-viral video explaining the do's and dont's of discussing a paycheck.

In a video that has received over 980,000 views and more than 900 comments, Sophia Pagliuca shared a series of “simulated” text exchanges between her and some of the families she has worked for over the last six years as a nanny. Pagliuca then shows her response, which included an apology for any misunderstanding which she explains in text overlay that she only did because she “was anticipating she wouldn’t pay me because she came off aggressively and there’s no benefit being rude or burning bridges.” The 22-year-old tells PEOPLE that she decided to share the informational video after “receiving multiple messages a day of nannies being blatantly taken advantage of.”
