[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every family handles this differently.  I usually do a combination of unpaid things where I ask if I can take the kid(s) to a specific outing or event and paid times when the parents ask me to provide childcare.  Why don't you see how she'd feel about you booking her once a month for a date night or something similar at X rate?  Like everything with nannies, the key is communication![/quote]

I think a full afternoon of free childcare every week, like another poster does, is taking advantage.[/quote]

I disagree.  Nannies on this board are always lamenting about how much they love their charges... well this nanny is actually proving it.  Good for the nanny and a blessing to that child and parents.  Not all nannies are in it just for the money.[/quote]

Lamenting? That word doesn't mean what you think it means. :lol:

Doing something for free is not how you prove you love it. Would lawyers give free legal advice? Doctors mend broken bones for free? Teachers tutor for free? Photographers give away free photography sessions? Personal chefs do meal prep for free? Of course not. [/quote]
