[quote=Anonymous]I've been a nanny for a family with an adorable 18mo for 7 months. They are planning a trip next month and have asked if I'd like to come along with them. The trip would be 3 days at a conference and then 4 days at a nearby major city. We are Canadian so this would involve a short international flight (on the same coast, just crossing the border in to the states). I have never travelled as a nanny before, and I  their first nanny, so this is new territory for everyone! I'm doing a bit of research now to give me some ideas before we sit down to discuss expectations/pay. So, a few questions:

What is the standard for paying a nanny on this kind of trip, assuming I'll be doing a combination of working during the day and evening?
Should I expect my own hotel room? I wouldn't mind sharing with the toddler who still occasionally wakes in the night, as long as I was compensated fairly. 
How do most families handle food/paying for activities/etc. on these kinds of trips? Both parents will be attending the conference so I will have at least 3 full days of work.

Any other sage advice? I would love ANY tips or advice anyone has to share about travelling as a nanny. Thanks! [/quote]
