[quote=Anonymous]I'm a long term nanny to a family I still adore and I feel we have excellent communication. 1: I think a weekly sit down sounds kind of babyish, but if you both enjoy that then go ahead. Personally in my situation we email and text a lot, so I have no hesitation to email MB and let her know anything I feel she needs to know. They tell me often they appreciate me and are completely happy with my services, so the rare times I get an email with that request to change something or fix something I don't get offended in the slightest and just adjust what needs to be adjusted. 2: I have guaranteed hours, if I ever do more than my normal hours they pay generously, I have never kept track and they have never once been late without notice. They have occasionally asked me if I could stay late but always with plenty of notice that I felt unpressured to say yes. 3: I enjoy working for my family because they keep the house clean, MB and DB are more friend than employer, we chat, they ask me how my day was and I ask them about theirs. It's friendly and cordial and low key. 4: For petty cash they gave me cash, I keep it in an envelope at home and I just pencil in my expenses on it just incase they ever ask, but so far they have simply given more cash when I asked for it. I keep in in cash, although I have considered just depositing it all into my account and just using debit, but it feels too wrong to deposit petty cash into my account lol.[/quote]
