Parent employers:
Enough already of your double speak about "average" pay rates. If you want a $$/hr nanny, leave it at that. We all know you are required to pay her time and a half, for OT. If you want her for 45 hrs a week, you can do the math. You can spell out the numbers in your written agreement. If she can't understand it, you have no business leaving your child in her care. Don't you people have any common sense? Do you really need to "work backwards"? How about upside down? |
Wake up and smell the coffee people!!!! |
Good grief, take a chill pill and go watch something on Netflix. It's not your problem to get so worked up about. Let. It. Go. |

Average rate employers, unite. |
Cheating the nanny isn't your problem, -until she sues your ass in court. |
Good luck with that in Cali. Civil cases are taking five years due to budget cuts and a massive backlog. |
Good thing we have a contract that clearly spells out the hourly and over time rates. Court win for us!!! |
Perfect. That's exactly what you need: 1. Hourly rate 2. OT rate - just for good measure No "average rate" garbage. |
Come on, it is not difficult to figure out OT!!! No one needs to calculate the "average rate" on guaranteed hours. |
OP, it's really none of your business how nannies and families decide to come to an agreement on wages. Many choose the average rate way and detail the total compensation in the contract. There is no "cheating" going on when people negotiate their compensation packages.
MYOB. |
OMG. Such a rational approach. What a breath of fresh air. |
If you aren't trying to cheat the nanny, please explain the purpose of your backed-up wages scheme. |
