[quote=Anonymous]OP, were in a nanny share now, and while the PPs have given you great advice, I have to mention that the one part of having a nanny that you trade the most with a share is flexibility.  For the nanny's sanity and to make the share work, you need set hours, and while there can be some variation, too much too often will not work.  Be aware that you factor the other family's schedule into everything - vacation days, start times, end times, etc.  It's great and we love it, but consistency is important when the nanny has to work for two employers.  Also, the timing issues you raise with hours changing depending on when DH is around may mean you pay alone for some hours that the other family won't want or need.  Not to discourage you, but just be aware that you may need your own nanny for the flexibility you want.

Also, you can alternate (we do one month at our house, one month at their house), but we do have double everything (except stroller - we bought one together and that's the only thing we transfer back and forth).[/quote]
