[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's important to remember that turnover for PT nannies can be high, so if you've got a good one and want her to stick around, make her job as appealing as possible.

Now, that being said, I don't think raises every year are the only way to keep your nanny around. You've already got a VERY good package for a PT position. You can show your appreciation in other ways (bonus, helath care contribution, extra PTO, etc)[/quote]

I agree with this PP. I don't think a raise is necessarily in order, but I would show appreciation in other ways. I know that with my PT positions, I ask for guaranteed hours which includes offering to help clean a bit or do a weekend night of babysitting for paid days off that they normally would have given off unpaid. So I think for me, I wouldn't mind a few paid days off where I didn't have to do the hours of babysitting on a Sat night or some household cleaning, like on some of the Fed Holidays that many others have off paid. I wouldn't mind a $1-2 raise, but I think little things over the year that make me feel appreciated for doing a good job, would make a great substitution.[/quote]
