[quote=Anonymous] I think you definitely have to discuss this with your nail. Another thing to consider is whether she would be interested in continuing to work for just your family, at less than current rate, but with the ability to bring her child with her.  You are right that most of the time nannies bring their charge charge a reduced rate.  And caring for two toddlers and a newborn is a lot. She may be happy to work with just your one child and her newborn, and in that case  juggling the two ages is going to be much easier.   How much you would have to pay would depend on whether you were comfortable with her regularly sacrificing your child's needs for her baby (such as no outings during naptime)  in which case it would be more a kin to doing a two child share where one of the children happens to be her own child, or whether you would like  her to focus primarily on your child (in which case her baby might spend a lot of time napping in carriers or strollers and being fed on the go), in which case it would be more like hiring a sole nanny with a reduced rate by a few dollars  for the benefit of not having to hire separate childcare for her own child.  I will say that either way you should not explore this option without talking to her and it will definitely not work at all if she has not had previous experience with juggling charges of different ages.
