[quote=Anonymous]I'm expecting a second child in August, and our potential daycare won't have a spot available until January. Child #1 would still be in his preschool until 6p, and I'm normally home in time to pick him up, so it would maybe be a week with both kids at the most (then a 4 month old and a 3 year old). I only have leave through November. I'm wondering if a temporary nanny position would be of interest (Nov & Dec), with potential for babysitting after, or if most nannies would prefer something permanent.

Are there other things I should be considering before I begin seeking someone who might be interested in this time frame? Are there tax issues/pay check issues to consider, or is this short enough that babysitting rules apply. Would this being close to holidays pose a problem as well? Because I'm using up every smidge of vacation for my maternity leave, my holiday time off will be pretty limited to likely two days around each holiday, and not sure yet what DH would get.

I've never hired a nanny before, so any advice would be greatly appreciated![/quote]
