[quote=Anonymous]MB here - I found our first nanny (let's call her Nanny A) as a referral from my own boss.  Nanny A was her weekend babysitter for years and was looking for a full time position.  My boss's regular nanny, Nanny B, had a baby when my son turned 1.  My boss asked me if I would be willing to do a share for a month so that Nanny B could have a month of maternity leave.  I said it was fine with me if Nanny A felt up for it.  Nanny A agreed and I was paying her her normal salary and my boss was paying her as well though that was between them and I don't know how much.

As a result, my boss was able to give Nanny B a month of paid maternity leave.  After that month, Nanny B left her baby with her own mom and went back to work.  I know that she also started bringing her baby to work with her on occasion.

As my boss's kids got older (they were 2 and 5 at the time that Nanny B had her baby), Nanny B started to work fewer hours and transitioned into a part time nanny with a schedule that fit with what my boss needed for after school and vacation/sick day care.  It seems to be a relationship that has worked well for them since I believe that Nanny B has been with them for almost 10 years now.[/quote]
