[quote=Anonymous]OP - My view based on 5 years of sharing...

1. You should guarantee hours so that unless she works OT it's the same amt each week that she gets (more if she works OT) even if one family decides not to use her for a day here or there - that would cove ryour "friday a month" question by saying you pay anyway.

2. Just set the hours for the week and the weekly rate then decide between the families how to divy it up. You are essentially offering a 2 child job to someone. (It is similar to a case when there are 2 kids in a family but 1 goes to preschool occassionally. It's generally still the same rate.) If 1 family needs a bit more time than the other than split the weekly rate 45/55 or something like that. Parsing out hours based on when a kid shows up or not suggests that not giving guaranteed hours is appropriate since nanny would sometimes only have 1 kid. Better to ensure all parties view it as a job where she cares for 2 kids and the employers decide how to split the cost of their employee.[/quote]
