[quote=Anonymous]I'm a physician, and several of my cofellows had nannies. (It wasn't that long ago!) I understand the predicament, you really can't just leave on time much of the time. I think you have to host. You can have hours that vary, but you can't expect another family to host your kid beyond their hours, even if you are paying, except in very rare circumstances. Also, while it's totally reasonable to have a variable schedule, you have to keep the unexpectedness to a minimum. This might mean paying for several extra hours when your husband isn't there to back you up, but being late, often, even if you pay OT, is not a good way to keep a good nanny. The further ahead you can promise the schedule will be firm, the better. Finally, don't forget post call time. Unless ID doesn't have exhausting call, you are going to want coverage on your post call days so you can get some sleep. A few fellows tried to do without this, and it caught up with them. [/quote]
