[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1 min after is late. She should arrive 1-2 min early [/quote]

Are you prepared to pay for her to be one to two minutes early?  This is 20-30 minutes a month.  Also, you need to be home one to two minutes early so she can leave at her contracted quitting time. Works both ways.[/quote]

No, because she gets paid at the start time of 8am.  She needs to be ready to start at 8am, if she needs 5 minutes or 30 seconds that is on her, but at 8am she should be ready to assume her duties.[/quote]

And do you ensure that your nanny is walking out of your house every day at exactly her contracted end time? I'm 5-10 minutes early each day, with employers who stroll in 5 minutes late, then want to change and talk about the day for another 10 on a daily basis. It irritates the hell out of me, so I understand your sentiment, I just think it needs to go both ways. If you expect a hard start time, make sure the end time is also strictly observed. If you're a parent can't manage to get home in time to release your nanny before you stop paying her, you don't get to bitch about her being 3 minutes late. [/quote]

The OP said she is on time in the evenings.  Yes, she should be letting the nanny walk out the door at the end of the paid time.  If she is keeping her to catch up on the day, the OP needs to get home earlier, just like the nanny needs to be there ready to work at the start time.[/quote]
