[quote=Anonymous]OP I agree that guaranteeing 40 and being upfront that you may need 50 is perfectly fine. My physician friends usually have nannies because daycare hours don't line up with their schedules. There are many nannies who are a great fit for this arrangement. It sounds like the one you interviewed isn't a good fit with a physician's schedule. The other 2 things to consider is being clear about snow days and extra vacation. There are nannies in this area who expect snow days for any situation not just safety. You should be upfront that you need to go in so if bad weather is predicted you could offer to pick her up or have her spend the night. You could also search for someone who has less of a commute to your house. Some nannies hope that you will take several weeks off and she'll get a huge amount of extra vacation. If your schedule only allows for the vacation in your offer, its could to make a point about that too. [/quote]
