[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just joined an existing share so my situation is probably different but I'll be taking Fridays off and we still had to guarantee the full hours for the share since that was the salary our nanny was used to. So it is split 50/50 even though he won't be there all the time. I look at it as similar to daycare--the rate is the rate with no discount if you miss a day. [/quote] +1 Family 2 pays for Friday or finds another nanny share. Most shares are 5 days a week. Good luck to them finding one that is only 4 days a week. [/quote] It doesn't really matter what days the hours are on. If family A needs the nanny for 40 hours, they pay for 40 hours. If family B needs the nanny for more than 40 hours, they pay for those hours themselves. If either family is unhappy with the arrangement, then presumably they won't match up as nanny share partners. The family who needs overtime hours doesn't automatically get the upper hand, requiring the other family to follow suit and pay for hours they don't need. [/quote] [b]I disagree. My kids go to daycare.[/b] All parents pay the same whether our child is there 4 days a week or 5 days a week, 8 hours a day or 9. Personally i would find another family/one that wants 5 days a week/50 hours/week. [/quote] Which is probably why you don't know that nannies are paid on an hourly basis (whether employed by a single family or in a nanny share situation). The payment is not structured the same way as daycare tuition at all. Apples to oranges. [/quote]
