[quote=Anonymous]In my experience, paying while you're out of town is the norm. If one of the weeks is of her choosing, then offering it unpaid or on your schedule is not fair. Maybe your nanny needs to work on her negotiation skills, but that is something that most professional nannies would not agree to during the contract phase. I sincerely hope you explained it all upfront. If not, you're in the wrong on that one. Expecting work from her is acceptable. My employers and I work around each other's schedules on this. If they will be away, I usually leave town for part of that time. I schedule the cleaners, organization and things like pre-return grocery shopping around my own schedule that week. I do it to make things run more smoothly, but I don't think it's 100% mandatory. It just makes things more manageable for me (and them) when the parents and kids return. [/quote]
