[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people need summer nannies. It's actually not that unusual.[/quote]

I was thinking this.  Your nanny might well be able to find a summer position -- parents who use aftercare during the school year but need childcare over the summer.  But the big risk is that your nanny finds a new, full-time/year-round job over the summer and doesn't return.  I'm not sure how you inoculate against that, other than by being a great employer.  Maybe having guaranteed hours, with the school breaks being paid vacations?  And helping her find summer positions?  [/quote]

OP here, yes, this is what I am afraid of. That I would be looking for a new nanny every fall. To the snarky “you are an idiot” posted above, I would be giving 3 weeks of paid vacation plus major holidays paid from September-June. But thanks foe your super helpful response!

I guess I will start by asking around the neighborhood to see if anyone has a nanny and a kid entering K next year/won’t need their nanny except in the summers. I live right next to a university, so maybe someone pursuing a degree in the evenings would be game...although maybe not the experience. [/quote]
