[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Op they are not ‘your nannies’. They are childcare workers who need to get paid, just like you do. Imagine if your boss said I’m not going to pay you this week but if I call you then you better come in or you will be fired. No. They are allowed to take other jobs. You are too cheap to hire a full time nanny despite all the hours you work. You are the cheap one. [/b] [/quote] This. If you are not paying them to be "on call" they are free to take any other babysitting job they'd like. Would your Dh be "pissed" if you called and asked her to sit one morning and she told you she couldn't because she had a dentist appointment, or was babysitting for another family (not your neighbors, but some other random family you don't know) or even just that she wanted to take a spin class at the gym?
