[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I maxed ourselves out on paying the nanny, we gave every last penny we could afford because she is amazing. At $19 base rate were at our breaking point with this daily over time. I think we will just give it to her straight and understand if she declines to stay. If that should happen, we will have to hire someone else at a lower rate in order to afford the overtime. Thanks DCUMers.[/quote] That's really too bad. It's not your fault for this change in circumstance and it is certainly not your nanny's fault. If you cannot flex any time in your job (go in earlier while DH is still home and leave earlier) then you have no choice but to tell your nanny. If she is paid legally, she can't actually refuse overtime - it's the law. Very sad for your children. Have you thought about getting rid of cable TV? That saved us 60 bucks a month - which would cover the necessary overtime. [/quote]
