Nanny not happy

[Anonymous]

She doesn't seem it.
Split from my husband last year and she works between mine and my exs house (Within 5 minutes of each other.). She doesn't drive but only has to get a bus.
Now I am moving again and will require her to get a bus, collect my child from school, walk him to the train station and then both of them will need to travel 5 mins to my house. She said it will be extra time and expense.

To get her to do this, what would be fair compensation? It's an after school nanny role.

I would quit. Too much.

We pay our after school nanny $25 an hour and she drives to pick up my son so we also include mileage.

I think paying for the bus pass would help

MB here.

That seems like a pretty heavy lift in terms of effort and hassle.

Unless this nanny is truly spectacular I think this might be the point at which you cordially split ways.

Otherwise, perhaps a 20% bump in pay might do it?

You've already posted here. $40 an hour plus an uber to get your kid and back/forth to work.

I think that is a lot re: public transportation, etc.

I think it would be better for everyone if you found a Nanny who is willing to drive.
