| I wouldn't assume that I am off work simply bc the parents are home. There is 30-60 minutes of overlay almost daily at my job. |

Because of nanny like you they treat all other nannies like crappie ...please grow up before it's too late. |

Not PP, but it sounds like you are actually the one in need of growing up. My hours are 8-6, and I absolutely do not leave when my charges' parents get home unless my shift is over. That is not professional at all. |

"Nanny, you have been leaving before your contracted end time of X pm. We currently pay you to be available to work from Y am - X pm. Has something in your life changed that means you need to leave as soon as I get home? If so, we can change our contract and pay you only for the hours you are here and working instead of guaranteeing you are paid for Z hours 52 weeks a year. What would you prefer?"
And if she says she wants to go hourly, then you need to tell her explicitly each day whether she can leave or approximately when she will be done when you come home. |

No. Of course good nannies do not do this. You hired a babysitter, OP, not a nanny. |

| Totally normal...you're home, it's safe to assume she's free to go. I try to do this, and nannies I've worked with in the past have done it as well. A big reason is to make the transition easier on the kids, instead of prolonging it. It can also be a sort of awkward time, and no offense but we usually don't want to just hang out with our bosses when we could be free. |
