[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree you can’t bait & switch the nanny, but I don’t understand how it’s remotely sustainable for a family to pay a nanny to sit around twiddling her thumbs. How would resentment not build??[/quote] Do you resent paying your nanny when the child is sleeping? You are paying for emergency care and guaranteed availability. Yeah, you pay her quoted hourly rate. If you think you’ll resent that, find other childcare options. Aftercare, for example. And a temp agency for sick days. Someone in your family will have to leave work for emergencies but at least you won’t resent anyone. [/quote] Well since I’m obviously not OP, this isn’t my childcare situation and in fact I do not pay for the gap. But if I did this is why I would want a housekeeper/babysitter and not a professional nanny. [/quote]
