[quote=Anonymous]First, why are you only guaranteeing 45 hours/week when you are asking for somebody for 50 hours/week? That will turn off some nannies who have options (i.e., good nannies). It is pretty standard for this area that you guarantee all the hours that you generally need the nanny for. What you are proposing is that if you get home early some day, or take half a day on Friday, that the nanny doesn't get paid for it. Second, this is the absolute WORSE time of year to look for a nanny, which is why you have fewer good candidates. Nannies will start looking again come the new year, so if you can hold off on your search until then, you will be in better shape. Otherwise, not sure why you are having problems if you are willing to pay $15/hour (gross). Agree that you absolutely should not be thinking in net terms. It will only lead to trouble down the road.[/quote]
