[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Remember: A SAHM also would be responsible for her own child along with yours. So in reality what you are asking for may just be too much for her. I suggest you hire a regular nanny/household manager for this. Expect to pay at least $23/hr.[/quote] I don't mean an actual SAHM. I mean someone to act like one and not just do preschool/school before and aftercare. [/quote] 19.17 here. I was hired for this type of position, but it was 24/7. I had the fun things as well as the not-so-fun things, and I had the authority to set the schedule in any way that I wanted. By far, it's been my favorite position, but the vast majority of nannies would hate it if they were willing to even try it. If the nanny doesn't have the same level of authority that a SAHM would have (ability to make all minor decisions without talking to parents, equal say with parents for major decisions), it's not likely to work long-term. And I can't speak for anyone else, but [b]there's no way that I would want 8 hours of responsibility per day with very little fun to balance it out.[/b][/quote] Haha! You mean like a job? I'd gladly take a 40-hour week with defined hours. As long as the work I'm doing is mostly stuff I feel good about doing (not going to take a job caring for dogs all day, for example), I can go to the movies on my off-time.[/quote]
