[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is her transportation? If the bus schedule is causing it, change the start time to work with the bus. If it's just a bad habit, tell her to knock it off.[/quote]

I’m the previous poster and the bus schedule should not be an issue. I use the bus for my work for many years and I adjusted my time so I would always be at work on time. Not the other way around. [/quote]

DP.  I agree with you that this how it should work, but in reality it’s not a frivolous issue.  If the nanny has to take a bus route that only runs every hour (either because the line she takes runs infrequently, or because of the timing of connections), she’s in a position where she either takes the earlier bus and then stands outside in the cold for the better part of an hour until 9 am (because sitting in a coffee shop for an hour isn’t an option during covid), or she takes the later one and risks being a few minutes late if the bus is running behind.  If this were part of the issue, OP agreeing to back up the start time to 8:30 and pay the nanny for that extra time might be a workable solution for everyone.[/quote]
