Salary data methodology

How NannySalary.ca collects, validates, normalizes and publishes Canadian household-employment data.

Illustrative dataUpdated September 1, 2026
Short answer

We preserve source provenance, normalize wages to hourly CAD, remove duplicates and invalid observations, prefer medians, publish sample context, and retain immutable monthly snapshots.

Source hierarchy

Official government and legal sources come first for rules. Authorized marketplace observations inform current market rates. Supporting job advertisements and disclosed surveys add context without being blended invisibly.

Validation and aggregation

Every observation requires source, role, location, wage unit, observation date, collection date and verification status.

  • Reject impossible or missing values
  • Detect duplicates and stale records
  • Calculate median and typical percentile range
  • Require review before safe publishing

Limitations

Launch salary figures are illustrative design-preview values, not verified market findings. Estimates are general information and cannot account for every duty, qualification or employment fact.

Common questions

What to know

Are these trust through transparency figures verified?

No. Launch salary values are clearly marked illustrative until independent source verification is complete.

Can this replace professional advice?

No. It is general information; employment, tax and legal requirements depend on the province and facts.
