[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi OP, fellow nanny here. That's quite a few hours there. So you're a live in and make $20/hour, work between 70-75 hours total a week, so around $1800-$1900 a week, correct? Does the family pay for your health insurance? Your car insurance (as you mentioned you drive the boys frequently, hence asking)? Do you get PTO beyond the 3 weeks vacation, holidays? Meaning, whether or not they need you, are you paid 52 weeks a year without a reduction in pay if it goes beyond the 5 weeks that are agreed upon? Do you have family in the area or that you are close with? How often can you see them if so? If you're ever not available to work for whatever reason, or just need a day during the week to reset, is back up care available? I couldn't imagine working this type of schedule. If I work more than 50 I feel burned out but I'm sure you get used to it after a bit. I wish you the best and hope you're happy with this position. [/quote] Closer to 70 hrs most weeks. No other benefits, but yes, I have guaranteed hours. Grandprents are backup care. I am not particularly close to my family but I travel to visit family or friends at least once a year.[/quote]
