[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your boss goes on vacation, does he/she still have to pay you? Oh wait, your bills don’t change because your boss is on holiday? Yeah same for the nanny. [/quote]

I’m salaried. If I pay her for hours she doesn’t work does that mean I don’t have to pay if she stays late? That’s what my boss does. [/quote]

Are you the OP?  Nannies are hourly employees, therefore not salaried. It is extremely common for nannies to have guaranteed hours based on the nature of the job. With retail hourly jobs, there is someone else to call of the employee cannot work. With nannies, you want (need) them to guarantee the time to you and not say, “oh, next week I will be working for a family traveling through; the pay is very high. See you the week after next!”  They guarantee their time to you and you guarantee payment 52 weeks per year. You should really look at the cost of employing a nanny as part of your annual budget and not try to make sure you’re getting every penny’s worth of time. [/quote]

No, I am not OP, but the analogizing to OP’s job is stupid. If her contract with her nanny has guaranteed hours she surely knows it. [/quote]
