[quote=Anonymous]Our new incoming nanny asked about gas reimbursement. 
She will do about 25 miles a week in her car using our car seats. She will commute about 150 miles a week, but pay for that gas herself.

We have only ever been asked to buy gas for our other nanny. She didn't say anything until I offered. Never even thought about it as its only going to school and back. She only does about 25 miles a week and so we give her $10 to buy gas. It more than covers it.

Our new nanny asked for $50 a week. I'm shocked and we can't afford it as she's already pushed us to the max on salary despite being less experienced than our outgoing nanny who is moving to another state.

What's the norm? It seems unfair to pay a lot for wear and tear since our mileage is such a small proportion of the overall mileage on the car. The gas will cost about $5 a week for 25 miles. So what's the other $2000+ a year. I don't want to be mean, but I'm going to have to start looking again because it's hardly worth me going to work. I should have become a nanny not bothered with 10 years of college and almost 10 years of working.[/quote]
