[quote=Anonymous]I used to be a nanny full time for 15 years. I'm on to an adjacent career now and work full time during the week. I have my own two kids ages 2 and 4. A high profile family friend of one of my former nanny families just approached me about being their weekend nanny from 6pm Friday-8am Monday for the next 3 months for their new infant. Includes weekends in both domestic and international high end destinations. $40hr plus overtime for all hours worked comes to about $4k per weekend or $45k for the 3 month contract. However, that means I would be working 7 days per week for the next 3 months and would only see my own kids on weekdays from 6-8am and 4-8pm this whole summer. I do have some flexibility with my full time job and could probably pull each kid from camp/daycare a couple times this summer to spend a day with them. I make $90k at my full time job so this would be a 50% pay increase for the year. But is it temporarily worth the lost time with my babies?[/quote]
