[quote=Anonymous]I am in the process of hiring a full-time nanny for my infant son. I understand that as a full-time employee, a full-time nanny is required to be paid 1.5 times her regular rate for any hours worked in excess of 40 hours in a given week. However, how does one handle pay for the occasional evening babysitting gig? On the one hand, it seems like the time-and-a-half rule should apply, since the nanny would technically be working over 40 hours in a given week. However, the job of nannying is arguably distinct from babysitting, and paying someone 1.5 times their regular rate to simply stand by while a child is sleeping seems excessive. Any thoughts/guidance? [/quote]
