[quote=Anonymous]You have to see it from the nanny's perspective. The after-school helper time slot precludes her from taking a 9-5 AND precludes her from takig weeknight evening jobs (which usually start between 5-6 IME). So these hours aren't great. Now you also tell her that her pay will be reduced by a day or more on a fairly regulR basis, and the job doesn't seem that desirable does it? A college student might be interested if her classes happen to line up, but then when the next semester comes, she may decide it's no longer convenient, leaving you scrambling. You know the old saying in design: Cheap, Fast, High-quality: pick two. The nanny equivalent is: Cheap, Experienced, Reliable: pick two. Now not every nanny who asks for a high/rate generous benefits will also be experienced and reliable, but your odds of finding someone who will prioritize YOUR part-time job over the other part-time job(s) she needs to get by drop when you lower the benefit/wage package.[/quote]
