[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here-  I have traveled with three previous families. The longest was for 2 weeks. What all three families did was pay me my full weeks salary (only if I was working my normal hours). If I was going to be working more, they paid me my normal rate times whatever the hours I worked. On top of that, they paid for my plane ticket, own hotel room and all meals. I also got a "travel bonus" once we got home. This varied with each family but depended on how long I was with them for. The family that I went on a cruise with paid me my normal salary (I worked 50 hours over a 5 day cruise which was my normal hours over 5 days) plus paid me $400 on top of that. They also however, paid for my part in the dolphin excursion, souvenirs, etc. The family that I traveled with for two weeks to the west coast was a lot different because I pretty much worked 14-16 hour days for the 12 days we were there. That wasn't normal so they paid me my normal rate of $17/hr plus at the end of the trip, gave me a travel bonus of $600.

It's common to pay a normal salary plus all meals, room and flight. It's NOT necessary to pay a "travel bonus" however, 90% of the nannies that I know, get paid a travel bonus at the end of the vacations they go on with their families.[/quote]
