[quote=Anonymous][quote=nannydebsays]I would start your search 3 months out, because some nannies actually respect the notice clauses in their contracts, and if you find a nanny in March who has to give 6 weeks notice, you'll be cutting things close by the time you've made an offer and signed a contract. As far as your pay is concerned, 50 hours including OT at $15 - 17/hour is $825 - 935/week gross. Whether that's average, good, or great depends on where you live and what kind of nanny you are looking to hire. I would offer 15 days PTO though to cover vacation, sick leave, etc. You can require that one of nanny's weeks off matches one of yours. [b]And guaranteed hours (same pay 52 weeks a year) have become more of an expectation than an extra[/b], IMO.[/quote] I disagree. If nanny isn't working why should she be getting paid? All kind of other professional level jobs are the same. I've had employers that had a power outage and sent us home early without pay. [/quote]
