[quote=Anonymous]-The 5-10 minutes your nanny gives you before her start time each day (5 days per week, 50 weeks per year, ~21-42 hours annually) [b] My nanny arrives at 8am and I leave at 8:15, specifically so she has time after she starts to exchange kiddie info with me -The occasional 5-10 minutes your nanny gives you when you're late/she spends time briefing you on the day, that she doesn't charge you for (2 days per week, 50 weeks per year, ~8-17 hours annually) [/b] I get home at 5:15 or 5:20 and the nanny is scheduled to work until 5:30 specifically so we have an overlap for an exchange of kiddie info. -The extra money she spends on your children while out and about that she doesn't charge you (a drink here and there, a bag of chips, a small toy, a box of crayons, some stickers, etc. the little incidental cost of spending time with kids) [b] The nanny is given petty cash specifically for these types of things -The skipped breakfast, lunch, and dinners because she's too busy [/b] We specifically make it a point to keep food our nanny likes in our house so she can grab something, and again, petty cash -The shirts your kids pooped on, puked on, stained with blueberry/strawberry fingers, ripped while hanging on nanny [b]Our nanny has been told to let us know if our kids ruin any of her clothes and we will either pay for drycleaning or replace the item. -The time your nanny spends planning and shopping for activities on her own time [/b] Our kids have naptime and quiet/time specifically so the nanny has downtime and time to plan for future activities. -All the things your nanny did this year that she didn't have to do, that you may not have even noticed (taking out the trash and recycle, loading/unloading your dishwasher, folding the clothes you left in the dryer, helping you pack/unpack for vacations, surprise dinner/baked goods, picking up the eggs/milk she knew you were out of, etc. ) [b][b]All of these things are written into our nanny's contract.
