[quote=Anonymous]Hello, My husband and I are new to DC and expecting our first baby shortly. After dealing with ridiculous day care companies (we were told by one that certain federal agencies are permitted to reserve spots before they have even CONCEIVED) we are looking into the possibility of a nanny. We have never done this before, but are both lawyers working for the federal government, so we would like to do things properly. Can someone explain what a typical nanny agreement would look like? Are they employees or contractors? Health insurance? What if they hurt themselves at the family's place or on the job? My husband is asking why we wouldn't just go through a nanny service, since it may be easier if a separate company handles all of these legal and tax issues. What are the pros/cons of going through a service vs. hiring a nanny directly? [/quote]
