[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a job like this. I started when the kids were 1 and 3 and left when they were 9 and 11.
They paid me when the kids were in school because I was still available for their kids. If one was sick, or school was closed they werent scrambling for childcare. They know they had me available all day even if i had a lot of free time.
What I did a couple of days a week was babysit for stay at home Moms (id met thru my kids) who had toddler or babies and just wanted a few hours to get things done.
They knew that my job came first though. It was nice for me to make extra money and them to have time to run errands by themselves.

Either I'm being paid by the primary NF so that I'm available at a moment's notice in case a child gets sick (which means no babysitting during school hours) and I'm paid 75-100% of my rate for those hours, or I'm not available during school hours, I schedule babysitting anytime I want when I don't have my primary charges, and the family is welcome to call me and pay my babysitting rate if I'm available (it's happened, and my babysitting rate is higher than my nanny rate because it's last minute).[/quote]
