[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny works anywhere from 17-50hrs a week. I pay her a flat rate of $700/wk. Her "hourly" rate is $10/hr and all additional money is a weekly "bonus".  No nanny would work my inconsistent hours at a regular hourly and [b]I want a flat expense[/b].[/quote]

[b]So it is okay to ignore the law when it stands in the way of something you want?[/b] [/quote]

Are you for real???? PP is paying her nanny anywhere between $12.72 hr plus OT pay for 50 hour weeks and $41.18/hour for 17 hour weeks. Even if nanny averages 40 hours/week year round, she is still making $17.50/hour. Sounds like a good deal to me, and I am usually the first one to speak up about FLSA and nannies legal rights.

Now, if PP was paying$13/hour for 17 hours and expecting nanny to work up to 50 hours a week for the same $221/week wage, I would have no issue with your snark, but geez![/quote]

I'm the $700 poster. I have school aged children, but have to have the consistent care. She is there for all illnesses, teacher work days, snow days, and summer. Basically between Now and June she's in the $40/hr range. She will be the fist to tell you this is an amazing set up for her. Right now she is working as a dog walker, essentially double dipping her income.

Most people in my position have long moved to AuPairs due to essentially needing part time hours.[/quote]

The $40/hr range between now and June sounds good to me. I bet she's amazing. Lucky children.[/quote]
