[quote=Anonymous]I hired a part-time nanny with the following package: 25 hrs guaranteed, $20/hr, two weeks paid vacation; five days paid sick leave; all federal holidays paid; snow days as per government guidance. She left the job three weeks after because she found a full-time position. So much wasted time interviewing candidates. Every week this nanny was with me I tried to offer her more hours per week, around 30, sometimes close to 40. She left me in a heartbeat. I have re-posted ad under the same terms. From the interviews so far, I have the feeling that we're going the same route, as my selected applicants are all looking for full-time ultimately. The rest are college students, which I'm not particularly interested in. For nannies, how long have you realistically kept a part-time? For employers, how long have you been able to keep a part-time nanny? I feel like I am walking towards a dead end. Or perhaps my offer is terrible?[/quote]
