Think if your end time as 7pm. If you leave at 6:15, you're getting off 45 min early.

Actually, this is great advice. Plenty of nannies work twelve hour days. The problem here is the frustration of expectations. If this is the only problem with the job, change your expectations and you may have the makings of a good fit.[/quote]

I somewhat agree with this. I am very punctual and my DH is always late. It used to drive me nuts but I just mentally add time to whatever he says and adjust when I tell him that I need him to be somewhere.

Where this wouldn't work would be if the nanny just can't bear to work another 30 minutes because the days are too long. The other problem is that the parents may start to come home even later. If her attitude shifts and they perceive that this isn't an issue it could become being an hour or two late not 15-30 minutes. Its not fair to either side for the nanny to pretend she doesn't mind and then get very angry. [/quote]
