[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, never fails that there are always immature and unhelpful responses on here.

OP, make it clear that you would like your nanny to take your son on outings. Suggest the places. She might be hesitant on spending gas and asking, so let her know you will reimburse her.[/quote]
Not everyone will front money for their employers. Most employers keep cash available for various expenses like this. One more piece of  "unhelpful" advice. Sorry.[/quote]

Okay. Or mom could pay for gas upfront. That was just a suggestion.[/quote]

I think that's fine if the nanny wants to be paid for the gas upfront. If my nanny asked me to do that I'd have no problem with it, but I'm curious (and I really am not trying to be difficult, just genuinely curious) if you trust your employer to pay you what you are owed at the end of the day/week why wouldn't you trust them to pay for the gas money too? If you were having to drive a really long distance before getting paid then it would make sense to get the money ahead of time but if the car already has gas in it so you aren't going to the gas station to fill up just for this trip wouldn't it be ok to wait until the end of the day to be paid for it?

My nanny often takes my kids out and sometimes even out to eat. I used to try to give her money ahead of time for the outings but she would never take it so now I just add it on when I pay her at the end of the week plus I usually give her a little extra to show I appreciate the effort she makes.
