[quote=Anonymous]14:12 has it right. They can do anything child-related and then are supposed to help out as a family member. We got along with our last one so well that she sometimes did a little extra if she had time, although we never asked her too and always thanked her profusely afterwards. We only use about 25 hours a week. Same schedule as you - morning and afternoon and then two date nights a week (two Weekend nights a month and the other four weekdays). That said, the main benefit and the reason we don't feel like we're not "getting our money's worth" by not using the max hours is that when we do need her for 45 hours, we don't have to scramble for child care. There are lots of days and weeks when school is closed for example. So she's typically 25 hours, but sometimes 40ish. She also feels like she has an easy job, which makes her happy :)[/quote]
