[quote=Anonymous]We nanny shared for about 7+ years. Although yes it was hard to manage a nanny I think it was the best thing for my kids as I was not finding any daycares I felt good about using.

- over that time we had 4 different share families. Lots of people just do shares until preschool but by the time oldest DC was ready for FT preschool we had younger DC.

- we had a contract and tried to put as much in their as possible. It was a three way with both families and the nanny.

- we did a payroll service the first few years to get us set up with taxes and create a template to follow.

- for families that wanted to share hosting duties with us we made it clear they needed a set up too so we did not need to take stuff back and forth so a 2nd booster / high chair there and a pack and play set up for the extra baby all the time.

- nanny was willing to use her car for driving the kids around which was a key piece for us when interviewing since we did not have a 3rd car.

My kids loved the nanny to pieces. Although it had its ups and downs for us as employers I think for them as kids it was a great choice. [/quote]
