[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is 25 hrs at her current rate enough for her to live on? Most would quit to find a full time job. Split shift is the hardest to get. Everyone wants it and only wants to pay for hours "used"[/quote] So what is fair in this situation? Going from full-time to part time care should come with a cost savings, shouldn’t it? I understand split shift is difficult to hire for and that it will likely come with a higher hourly rate than full time care, but I find it odd to suggest that one should pay for more hours than are worked.[/quote] Do you think your nanny's expenses will go down, just because you won't need her full time? That her landlord will decrease the rent amount? That the cost of gas and wear on her car will actually be LESS when she is driving back and forth twice a day, instead of just once? Of course not. And if you have her working a split shift, it decreases her ability to find another part time job to make up the difference. [/quote]
