Starting rate for six day a week nanny schedule

Anonymous
Okay…. I don’t get the “time with my kids” angle. Wouldn’t a 30 hour a week workweek for the same salary as a 40 an hour work week give you more time to spend with your own children?

I would actually love this schedule with elementary schoolers! Partner does drop-off in the morning, I have an hour or so between finishing work to putter and relax, than I can pick my kids up and not have to worry about aftercare, etc. Sure losing weekend mornings would be a trifle annoying but it would be worth it for being free all days after school.


Not at the cost of giving up half your Saturday.


You know millions of people work full days on weekends, right? All those people you see working aren’t childfree.


You know millions of people don’t work 6 days a week. All those people you see out have children or not.


So what’s your point? If those jobs are not for you - those jobs are not for you.

Such a limited mindset on this thread. When you see all the people working on weekends to serve you, do you think they’re all childfree?


So what’s your point, people choose all the time not to work 6 days a week but you are pissy that they don’t. No one has to work 6 days a week because some others do.
Knock yourself out working 6 or 7 days a week if you want. I’m not.


I’m not pissy about anything - in fact, I’m laughing at you! To turn up your nose at a 30 an hour a week job at $40 an hour plus healthcare and a car because of the horror of having to work half days on Saturday and Sunday (with Mondays off and one weekend a month off) is patently ridiculous!


+2. And it’s actually half-days every day.


Do it if you want. Ask her for her contact information. 6 half days is a waste as more hours with fewer days is most desirable for most.

Mondays aren’t off, you pissy idiot. Hence the 6 days a week.


Mondays are off, you idiot. Re read the OP’s post and count. There are seven days in a week. That I have to explain that to you makes me laugh even more!!

DP. I value my days off. Two doesn’t feel like enough and we’ve all heard of talk of moving work week down to 4 days.

That’s not uncommon in physician life. But not typical for the vast majority of careers.

NP. I read it too and it does says 6 days a week and then contradicts with Tuesday-Saturday. You are not exactly correct and calling out someone for exactly what you did.

But if you had every afternoon off with this salary and the perks? And one full paid weekend off every month? NP here and I don’t get it either. Even with young kids (and an involved co-parent) I would love this schedule.
