[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay first of all, that is my response that you are trying to prove wrong even though you are just repeating everything I said. As someone who is actually a nanny and has been for 12 years, you absolutely can pay a weekly rate for a nanny for 40 hours. And for full time it is typically less than hourly because you are offering more hours. At $600 a week, you would be making $2400 a month which is incredibly high and that's where the OP figuring out what she can actually afford vs daycare comes from. I can also see where you clearly missed the part where I typed if she goes over 40 hours, it becomes overtime. So sick of people like you not actually reading posts before commenting. Let the big girls talk now.[/quote]

Sorry sweetie but you've got a lot to learn. I am a nanny as well, and can't believe you've been one for 12 years and don't know your rights. Please read this:

"Nannies and other 'domestic service employees' are classified under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) as non-exempt workers. The term non-exempt employee refers to a worker who IS subject to the terms of the FLSA regarding such issues as overtime compensation and minimum wage coverage, contemporaneous time tracking recordkeeping, as well as how frequently the worker must be paid. In simple terms, the household employee is required to be paid an hourly wage and is entitled to overtime pay per the provisions of the FLSA. When your household employee receives a "salary" that covers a work week of more than 40 hours, your employment agreement must explicitly state the regular and overtime rates of pay. See our exclusive Hourly Rate Calculator for help. It is important to note that the FLSA specifically calls out domestic employment (housekeepers, maids, nannies, etc.) in the statue as non-exempt employees, covered by the rules and protections of the FLSA. This is not a grey area, subject to individual interpretation."
