[quote=nannydebsays]OP, just to clarify: when I said [quote]...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.[/quote] I meant that your nanny would come in and do the AM and PM shift as normal, but then the time your kids are in school would be her own.

[quote=Anonymous]Geez, your nanny has it made. Nannydeb is unbelievable. Yes, you should give the nanny full pay but agree to only have her work 3 days out of the five that she is working. If you expect her to open the door for a vendor while she is being paid then you should give her a slight raise or a few mini spa days. Yes, getting your ass off the couch is really a lot of work that needs to be well rewarded. [/quote]

I'll accept that my wording was poor in the "days off" suggestion, but I believe I also used "or" (household management issues) and "and" (additional perks) to indicate the OP could choose from among the numerous suggestions I made. Or the OP can ignore me.  :D

Obviously, PP, the OP is not going to give a raise, give additional PTO time off, [b]and[/b] give bunches of perks. That would be idiotic. But if she wants to keep her nanny, she'll need to do something to make the job appealing despite the LACK of future significant raises.[/quote]
