[quote=nannydebsays]I think at this point you talk to her about her increasing down-time being her "raise". IOW, if you don't need her to work for you 1 or 2 days a week, let her have that time off for her own stuff, unless there is an emergency or the kids are out of school. You'll basically be cutting her hours yet keeping her pay the same. As a nanny, that's a deal I would gladly take if I wanted to stay with a family when all the kids were in school. Or, you can talk to her about increasing her household management responsibilities (doing family meals, being available for vendors at your home, taking on other tasks you need done but find it hard to accomplish...) and keep giving small raises. And adding additional perks is always welcome. Helping with health insurance costs, adding a gym membership, giving her a monthly mini-spa day...any of those things can stand in for $$ raises.[/quote]
