[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here--Thanks for this feedback and keep it coming. I would not dock her pay if we moved the start time. The girls are dropping their naps so I'm just worried that it's a lot of hours to be on...they are sweet kids and not crazy-but I know how I feel at the end of the weekend with them. We currently pay $730/per week (remember she lives with us--so that includes room/board/food....) Thinking about raising to $750/week plus I really like the idea of two mornings a week off (just arrive in time to pick up the girls....).

But if we do this--is it fair to have a conversation about being more engaged with the girls? While nanny was awesome with the girls when they were infants, I have noticed that her enthusiasm/engagement/creativity waning...just seems shorter with the girls, less patient, fewer games (seem to always do the same activities--legoes, block...). Thanks in advance for everyone's input. [/quote]

Nanny poster. It's always fair to discuss job performance with your nanny especially when you have concerns and are looking for improvement.
Honestly the schedule she has now isn't unreasonable, though it is great that you are so considerate of her.

It may just be she is a better infant and toddler nanny and your girls have aged out of her expertise.

Talk it over with her. I know I'd want my employer to talk things over with me. 
You seem very reasonable OP. Hope everything works out.[/quote]
