[quote=Anonymous]Our nanny is wonderful with our two children, ages 6 months and 2 years. Unfortunately, she recently had her license taken away and now has a long commute on metro and bus to get to and from our house. She asked for a raise which we are scrambling to fulfill, because we know how much the commute costs and she deserves a raise. Right now she is paid every other week, $1250 before tax. We want to increase her pay to $1500, but pay her only twice a month so she's on the same pay schedule that my husband and I are on. So we're going from 26 to 24 pay periods. We've tried to explain to her how over the course of the year she will be making much more, but she is fixated on the fact that in March she will only get 2 pay checks instead of 3. Any advice on how to convey this better? It's not a language issue, and we've gone over the math with her many times.[/quote]
