[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nannies are hourly employees so a salary is out of question. Both families need to file taxes separately to avoid tax fraud. Besides any experienced nanny will refuse the share rate on one child days because you just can't afford normal nanny rate. Find someone to do the a share one day a week. The only reason shares are beneficial to nannies in the first place is because they receive a higher rate than they would a single family with two kids. You skimping out already on a less then full time position isn't going to attract many qualified candidates.[/quote]

First of all, you do not know anything about or finance.  Why would I pay the nanny the same rate to watch one kid as I would to watch 2 kids?  Also, I am not skimping out- I am off one day per week and DH is off one day per week- our need is only for 3 days per week.

If they nanny wants to know the breakdown I will say "$22 per hour on days when you have 2, $18 per hour on the day you have one" or whatever we decide on for the rate.[/quote]
