[quote=Anonymous]Help! I need your input on this situation.

We've had our nanny for 6 months. She works part-time averaging about 16 hours a week at 20$/hr. We have one child who is at school for half the days our nanny is with us. This was in an effort to compromise on the number of hours a week. While she is home she does some house work. Things are going well.

When we hired her, she asked about holidays. We said that we would give paid time off for Christmas, New Years, 4th of July, Labor Day. Last year we also gave Memorial day because we were away. This is 50% of the federal holidays which is about the percentage of hours out of 40 she is with us each week.

Today she asked to have all federal holidays paid.

I personally think this is too much. She is part time, has only been with us 6 months, makes a competitive hourly rate for 1 kid who she is only with part of the time, and has already been given more holiday paid time than agreed on. We also gave a substantial Christmas bonus and other small monetary gifts for various reasons.

What does the DCUM world think?
