[quote=Anonymous]No, it's not legal unless they spell out how much room and board is worth, how much the nanny is making per hour and guarantee pay for anything above 24 hours, and it's for the NANNY'S benefit, ie. nanny has a choice between live-out at a fair rate and live-in for just room/board. Most nannies aren't really going to want to work every single day, even for just two hours. Add in that the hours in the morning conflict with a full day or split shift position, and it's even less likely that the nanny will be long term. With three references required, I would assume that most nannies would be able to charge at least $20/hour, which translates to trading $480/week gross pay for one floor in a shared house. That's $2,080/month or $24,960/year. I can't imagine that a nanny wouldn't prefer to live-out and instead be able to have some privacy.[/quote]
