[quote=Anonymous]Would love some advice. We had a nanny who didn't work out for us and left with a significant amount of cash (which was our fault - we paid her in advance rookie move). We have a new nanny now and we're so impressed with her. It's like night and day. However, I think we're a little scarred about giving her cash. We have set up an electronic weekly payment (on Fridays, after she has worked her week) but how do you handle incidental expenses? We want her - and she seems very eager - to take our kids on lots of field trips (zoo, museums etc). We want to cover incidentals - admissions, parking etc as well as have her get some groceries. We are fine with her taking the kids out to lunch too (especially when our cleaners are in the house). Obviously these are all minor expenses - I mostly want to make sure what we give her is appropriate and doesn't lend itself to abuse. Do you give your nanny a house credit card? Do you do cash budget or just reimburse? How do you track it? Would love anyone's advice. [/quote]
