[quote=Anonymous]Okay, live-in nanny here, and as I've dealt with several strange schedules, I thought I would put my two cents in.  You need to plan for the worst, hope for the best, so advertise for a nanny who can do both Sunday and Tuesday nights if necessary, but make sure you make it clear that it will be for extra money.   You really need someone who can get along with your large extended family, but who is comfortable with setting up a schedule with very little oversight.  You need someone who is comfortable having power of attorney for your child in case there is an emergency and you aren't in state.  You need a nanny who is comfortable being the first contact for your child's school or preschool (if old enough).

My personal opinion is that you will soon find that you will need to leave Sunday night and return either Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, given that winter will be here before you know it.  But if you find a great match for personality and childcare style?  It can absolutely work![/quote]
