[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm confused - law dictates a nanny is an hourly employee, not a salary. Why should she pay for services not rendered? Example, I work an hourly job at xyz company but if I don't work that day, I don't get paid unless I have sick hours accrued, etc. I'm honestly curious about this, not picking on you OP.[/quote] If a nanny is told she will work 8am to 6 pm all week she reserves that time for you and doesn't take another job. If on Sunday night you say "oh we don't need you after 3 pm all week" then the nanny is not able to get another job for those times on that short notice. You pay a nanny for the hours you think you will need and her availability not just the hours worked (although usually those match 100%). That's why a good contract has guaranteed hours. In an MB and I guarantee nanny 42.5 hrs a week (including the overtime) I pay her even if I come home early or go on vacation one week. [/quote]
