[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MB here and I agree that if they want a long-term commitment then you can negotiate that just as you would a fulltime offer.

Guaranteed hours, pro-rated sick/vacation leave, and some number of holidays off are all reasonable, as is being paid legally of course.

27 hours is somewhere between half and 2/3s of a fulltime position (usually they are around 40-50 hours per week) so I think you could ask for 5 vacation days and 2 or 3 sick days.  I'd also look at when your typical work days fall and see how many federal holidays occur on those days.  For instance, if you normally work Mondays that a day with a lot of federal holidays - so you might want to request a couple of those as part holidays as part of your overall compensation.

In return for them making those commitments you can/will protect the standing times they are guaranteeing, and you can (if appropriate) offer to work occasional extra hours at an agreed upon rate, on a flexible basis.

If a standing part-time commitment like that works for you then you're probably a terrific fit for the family and hopefully they will want to make it worth your while to stay with them.  Good luck![/quote]

Thank you very much![/quote]
