[quote=NisforNanny]I don't think that your PTO package is unreasonable, but there are a few things you should consider. When I look at offers, I look at the total package - PTO is just one element. I have accepted jobs with lower wages and lots of PTO, just as I have accepted jobs with little PTO and a higher pay rate. One thing that I would not accept (and thus negotiate for and discuss mutually-agreeable solutions, if necessary) is not to be paid when the family is away. Are you guaranteeing hours for your vacations beyond the four days you select? How does your pay rate compare to similar positions? Would your nanny be allowed to take additional leave, unpaid? Do you consider Columbus Day and Veterans' Day to be federal holidays? While they are, many employers do not offer them as such, so if you are offering them I would specify that to increase the attraction of your PTO package. Good luck![/quote]
