[quote=Anonymous]I received a 50 cent raise after one year and was not insulted because, as someone suggested, I have many perks. I get all federal holidays PTO, I am paid when they go on vacation, I get paid when I go on vacation (10 days a year), a week off at christmas paid, time and a half for overtime, and 3 paid sick days (though I've only used 1 in a year and a half). I make less than most nannies per hour, but at 50hrs a week, 52 weeks a year, I am doing just fine. And their vacation does not count as my vacation time. But because they treat me with so much respect, I make sure that my vacations days are at a convenient time for them and I give them months of advanced notice. IMO security is the most important perk. I always know that I will be able to pay my bills, and I feel like my time is respected. I never have to worry about clearing my schedule for a job, only to have them cancel and not pay me. Plus there is always ice cream in the freezer :) [/quote]
