[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks, OP here. I am aware you don't 'bank hours' it was asked because it was a day of decision and made so late. My question is what is the appropriate time in advance the family can take off and let the nanny know. EX: If I have a vacation planned for August 20th. When do you alert.[/quote] Career nanny here. Alert as soon as possible. I always tried to time my leisure travel when my employers would be out of town. I worked a PT job in the last year, and had guaranteed hours. She shuffled the hours around, and I did not appreciate that. I think they weren’t very experienced at keeping nannies. There was professionalism lacking in other areas, and I decided to leave that position. If you have a sitter, you don’t guarantee hours. If you have a nanny, you should guarantee hours if you want to keep the nanny. It’s quite common in our industry. [/quote]
