[quote=Anonymous]This is the way I see it. If a nanny is working an overnight, but has the luxury of being able to sleep on the job, then she is to be paid a flat rate by the family. (This is if the child is older and is expected to sleep uninterrupted through the whole night.) If the nanny is working an overnight, but is not allowed to sleep during her shift, say she is to tend to a newborn, etc., then I say she gets paid her regular hourly rate. It all depends on whether or not she is allowed to sleep or not during her shift. What is tricky is when you have a situation where the nanny is allowed to sleep, yet you have a child who wakes up during the night for different reasons. I.e., needs a bottle/drink, needs to use the potty, teething, misses parents, not sleep-trained, etc. In these cases, the nanny should get paid her hourly rate as well since she is not getting a good night's rest and cannot depend on being rested enough for the next day to go to another job.[/quote]
