[quote=copyedster]Sorry if this has been asked before... How do those of you who share a nanny handle the cost breakdown between families? Our arrangement is 100% at Family X's house, with both babies being the same age (they're a week apart). Up til now, we've shared the cost 50/50, but the other family has started asking us to chip in for random things (e.g. batteries for the swing). I'm more than happy to do this, but I want to make sure that I'm proactive in offering the right thing. I don't want them to resent us for not chipping in more. Trouble is, they don't know what's fair either. I'm thinking the hosting families incur the following costs: batteries, utilities, toilet paper, laundry costs (for things like blankets; they don't do any of our kid's clothes), other things that I'm overlooking??? The flipside is that we have the inconvenience of adding 30 mins to our commute each way, every day. What do other families do? Thank you!!![/quote]
