[quote=Anonymous]Currently working for a family on an as needed basis. Four children, busy dad, busy stay at home mom - who prefers to have help and do her own thing. Family recently started renting to a friend of theirs who has joint custody of her child. This child is around a few times a week and the friend/parent is generally around. All caregivers are used to doing their own thing with the 4 kids and now this 5th child is around. No conversation has been had re: details, boundaries, etc. but the 5th child has become kind of an added responsibility at times, even if the friend/parent is home. Recently, the 5th child has been left alone with caregivers - again as an added responsibility, without warning, leaving the caregiver in an awkward situation. Caregivers usually turn in hours worked to receive a pay check. What is the best way to handle the hours already worked, caring for this 5th child? And what/how should this be handled going forward?[/quote]
