[quote=Anonymous]You might find that to hire a truly good PT nanny with the experience you want, the weekly cost won’t be much less than a FT nanny. Since it can be remarkably hard to find a second PT nanny job that fits with the first PT nanny job, nannies charge a premium hourly rate to work PT. A nanny share might be a good choice for you, since you (and the other FT family) would be paying 2/3-3/4 of the nanny’s typical hourly rate. Or, you could do the work to find another family that needs a nanny on the days you don’t, and seek a single nanny to alternate work days. Only you know if the grandmother is up to the task of infant care. Does she know current safety rules, or is she willing to learn? Or will she insist on putting your baby to sleep on their belly, think car seats are silly, and insist she gave you honey to eat at 6 months old “And you were just FINE!”?[/quote]
