[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are saying that whether or not there are children in the house that the caregiver isn’t responsible for impacts the question I asked about figuring out overtime pay?

I don’t understand.  [/quote]

Not the PP, but this was asked because possibly living in was brought up & if someone were to offer or take that as an option, having kids in the house would affect the dynamics for that.[/quote]

Obviously there are all sorts of specifics about our household that I would need to discuss with someone I was thinking of hiring, kids being one of them.

But the PP seemed to imply that it would change the answer to my question about structuring pay.  That I don’t get.

I don’t think that someone living in would work for us.[/quote]

I'm the PP who brought up living in.  Yes, the structure of hours affects pay, always.  And if you had a live-in, that would affect pay.  Since you have children, that would definitely affect the pay as well.

Live-in caregivers don't get overtime (except in certain locations).  However, live-in caregivers expect to have the ability to sleep, and the placement of their bedroom, a daytime sleep period and kids at home would affect pay.  Since you have no intention of have someone live in, it's irrelevant to you... but because you didn't provide a complete picture of what you wanted and were asking questions about pay, I suggested multiple options that might have worked (and might decrease your total cost).[/quote]
