I got some downvotes, but it is true that wage levels for service jobs reflect the wealth of the people consuming those services. It is not more difficult to drive a taxi, cut hair, clean a house, or babysit in a rich country than a poor one, but those jobs pay better in real terms in a rich country, because the people paying for those services earn much more in rich countries and are willing to pay more to save time.
