[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Increase to full time now. Don’t mention that you work-from-home until your initial interview where the nanny-candidates can see that you (hopefully) have an office away from the main living space and they read you assure them that you will not be underfoot. [/quote] I disagree w/the above advice. If you live in a small city/town, then your salary of $20/Hr is likely reasonable. While many…..possibly the majority of Nannies may be seeking full-time employment there are also people out there who also attend school & are only looking for a part-time gig. Also there are SAHMs as well as retired people who would only want to work part-time as they just need or want a little extra ca$h on the side. You may have to look longer for them - but they ARE out there OP, I can promise you. Since you work from home > I would definitely let prospective Nannies know this from the get go. Only because there are some Nannies that have had bad experiences working alongside a parent who may have no desire to work for a parent who telecommutes. It is best to be completely honest when discussing a job’s description. Wishing you the best in finding a great Nanny for your family! :)[/quote]
