[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most nannies won't do this. We have lives outside of work and do not want to give up on planning things further in advance just because you want flexible care. You need to schedule the hours that you might want to use and then just pay for any that you don't end up having the nanny work.

If you can't afford 40+ hours per week, then you can't afford a nanny and should just stick to daycare. They don't care if you pay for a FT schedule and pick the kid up early. A nanny will also require the exact same thing, any potential hours you might want to have them available to work needs to be "saved for you" and paid for regardless of if you use them or not.[/quote]

Stop with the you can't afford a nanny nonsense. She obviously can!! And FYI there are plenty nannies who just want 30hrs 
We paid  our nanny 40hrs though she only worked 35 plus benefits and gas. Rate was 27 an hour. We finally went the daycare route not because we couldn't afford it because your attitude suck and the entitled behavior. Daycare has been a blessing. Less drama and more reliable care. Nannies have become very entitled since the pandemic.[/quote]

Do you have a job or do you just sit on the couch every day? What do you mean by entitled?
If you worked at a bank and your hours are M- F 8-12pm, but in order to keep this job you have to agree to an extra 5h a week, and your boss will choose them for you. Your bank closes at 5pm every day. So now you have to be sitting next to your phone M- F 12-5pm and wait when he will need you.
Would you work this job? I’ll answer for you: hell now! 
You think we’re Nannie’s are still entitled? [/quote]

This is pretty common in the rest of the working world.  Many of us go to work not knowing when we'll be finished.  [/quote]

Right, hence the salary you earn. Nannies are hourly employees.[/quote]
