[quote=Anonymous]Do you guarantee your nanny a set number of hours or weeks of pay? Why? Why not?

*Yes, the nanny is guaranteed a set weekly salary, which is 40 hours plus 5 hours OT (regardless of whether she actually works OT hours or is receiving paid leave).

If you take a day off here or there is your nanny still paid. What is the benefit in doing this?

*Nanny always receives the same amount of money each week.  The only exception to this would be if she used up all of her paid leave (10 days vacation, 5 sick days) and then time off would be unpaid, but that has never happened.

If your nanny works 8.5 hours do you subtract the .5 to account for a lunch break. The lunch break doesn't allow for nanny to leave the home.

*No, that's weird.

How many federal holidays are PTO.

*Nanny gets the same holidays I get - which are most federal holidays (excluding one), the day after Thanksgiving and then whatever I get off for Christmas, which changes each year.

I used a contract which I found online as a starting point and then covered other items unique to us.  I agree with PPs that spelling out the actual holidays is better than just saying "all Federal holidays."[/quote]
