[quote=Anonymous]In your situation, you are not just paying for the hours she actually works, you are paying for her availability. You are paying her for 40 hours a week (plus overtime) so she doesn’t cut back her time with you to fewer days a week so she can take a second job, and suddenly you’re stuck with no childcare on a Tuesday when you and your spouse both need to be in the office. Your nanny needs to pay her own bills, so if you don’t pay her enough, she will find a new job. If you want her available to meet your needs all week, you need to pay her appropriately, including reasonable wage increases.[/quote]
