[quote=Anonymous]I am a former AP. I wouldn't have been happy with working with a nanny. Even with little or no overlap.
I would have been flexible during the week but my weekends were my time to explore, not work. I was fine with Sat. babysitting but working during the day on Sat. or Sun : no way.
You will probably find someone that comes and say yes, and then realizes that she can't go out with friends every weekend and there will be resentment.
A light schedule during the week doesn't make up for work on weekends.
Let alone your husband that will be home and will "take over". In reality we all know that if you're paying for 45 hours you will want to use these and your husband will need time to himself to relax from his stressful job. Or he will hang out at home and your AP will feel she's being watched.
This is what I wouldn't like but it's just me. I'm hoping you will find someone that doesn't mind all of this.
Having a 1 month schedule is fine, this is what I had, and it was great to plan my outings and other activities.[/quote]
