[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll be the voice of dissent. As a nanny, I appreciated be able to drive kids somewhere to break up the monotony of the day and never expected to be reimbursed for mileage-I just can't imagine keeping track of mileage for the extra 16 cents.

Offer a gas stipend per week. If she doesn't want to use her own car for trips that SHE want's to take, then she doesn't have to. [/quote]

What are you talking about, extra $0.16? Mileage is currently 58.5 cents per mile. This covers gas and wear and tear on her vehicle. I honestly can't believe a nanny is suggesting doing otherwise. This is standard in the industry.[/quote]

Another nanny here, I usually use my car and don’t ask for reimbursement. Mainly bc I don’t want to keep track of mileage and I take care of kids 3mos-2yrs. I also get paid very well, typically receive bonuses/gifts throughout the time I’m working for a family and families have given me free range. I’m also not driving an older car. So $40 isn’t going to cover wear and tear on my car. Now if I use a family’s car then I expect the tank to always be filled and when it’s low I immediately tell them so they can fill the car up or leave money for gas. [/quote]
