[quote=Anonymous]A few more possibilities: 1) The other parent is deploying (or similar) for a year (or similar time frame). The parenting hiring the nanny still works FT and needs morning/evening coverage because she is single parenting. 2) There has just been a death or divorce, the parenting hiring the nanny cannot just quit his or her existing job and is “making it work” until he or she can figure out what’s next. 3) The parent(s) don’t consistently need that coverage, but need it often enough that they will pay for the nanny to be “on call”, instead of having to scramble to find coverage when needed. For example, she’s a lobbyist and has a lot of fundraising breakfasts or receptions to attend. He frequently travels, so he can’t do pickups or drop offs on short notice. Not every night, but enough nights that it makes sense. [/quote]
