[quote=Anonymous]I believe that in an interview parents should tell a nanny whether or not they are going to need her to be flexible with leave times. A doctor, for instance, may need someone who is flexible. If MB and DB don't state in an interview that they need flexibility then I think it is only fair for them to keep the amount that they come home late to a minimum.

There is also a big different between being 5-10 minutes late and being 30+ minutes late. There is also a different between every once in a while and frequently. I think that it just shows respect if MB or DB text/call ahead of time (as soon as they know!) that they are going to be late.

While I do like to hold MB and DB accountable, at the same time if I was an MB I would not think very much of a nanny who in an interview told me that she had inflated late charges. I understand that daycares do this, but a nanny is not a daycare. I think that $10 per 5 minutes is ridiculous.

If a nanny has a rude nanny family who are often late and never let her know ahead of time then I can understand maybe charging them double time for the minutes that they are late (if you are normal $20/hr, then $40 per hour) but even that is pushing it for me.[/quote]
