[quote=Anonymous]1. unless you can find another family only wanting 7 months, it sounds like you are better off finding a nanny for yourself
2. if he's really that bad, you need to crate him or block him off in a certain part of the house. I'm a dog lover and have a 70lb dog myself, but there's no way I would agree to working with a family that has a dog that big and I can't control
3. sorry, I'm a nanny I don't know that info 
4. you can easily find a contract online (that's how my family did it) 
5. if you are in a good area, there's no need for her to drive. I survived for two years without driving the twins I work for anywhere but I was also able to walk to multiple parks, a barnes and noble, a starbucks, and a handful of other kid-friendly places. we met plenty of children when we were out so there was no need for a class
6. I don't have any duties when my charges go down for a nap. 10 hours is a long day so it could just be downtime for your nanny if you are okay with that. other families ask for toy organization, child laundry, and cleaning the child's room/closet but I don't see how necessary that would be for you with a child so young
7. nope! I start at 7:10
8. it depends on your rate. I don't think you necessarily need to pay higher due to the fact that it is a limited time position. it might help some nannies that only need something that long and it will give them a definitive end time so they can look for new jobs. I would be careful if they go on an interview in month 5 and all of a sudden quit because they found something longer term. Unfortunately, you can't really control that as you need 7 months, no more.
