[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about in situations where living in would be a perk for the nanny? For example, we have an apartment in our house, and we are considering asking a couple we know if they would like to move in. They just had their first baby, and the mom wants to stay home with him, and take care of an additional child or two so she can earn an income. However, they are finding that they can't find an apartment they can afford (they are currently renting a room from someone, and have to move out soon). On the market, our apartment would command about $1,400. So in this case, we would rent our apartment to them at a reduced rate (we would charge them $1,000 max), then pay an hourly wage for childcare.[/quote] This sounds shady.[/quote] Why does it sound shady? The PP is looking to pay part of the potential employee's wages in the form of housing, which is something that the potential employee is in need of, and cannot otherwise afford.[/quote]
