[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do tell 15:37 and 17:00.  Why is an agreement that is supported by consideration and intended by both parties to be binding something other than a contract?[/quote]

A contract is legally enforceable.
 Whatever you might have, is not.

Not true.  Many provisions in a typical nanny contract are enforceable.  Those that are not include things that are independently illegal, such as restrictions on the nanny's right to quit and take other work, failure to pay at least minimum wage, and failure to pay OT. [/quote]
Duh, federal employment law is obviously enforceable. 95% of what most of you put in your "agreement", is not. Did you not know that?[/quote]

This is not true and you really should stop spouting misinformation. Very few employers have the time or desire to go about enforcing the contract, but aside from a few exceptions, once you all sign it, it is enforceable. If you believe it isn't enforceable, please show me a reputable source saying so. If a nanny runs around signing contracts and breaking them she CAN be sued and lose. [/quote]
