[quote=Anonymous]When a job changes significantly it's fine to sit down and renegotiate the terms of your work agreement.  This is the same advice I see many of you give to nannies when children are starting school, NF is having another baby, etc. Adding 14 hours a week to the nanny's work work is a signficant change in my book.   Honestly I've found that a lot of nannies (I didn't say all, so please don't throw a fit) I know do not care as much about their base and OT rate, but do very much care about their overall compensation package.

The nanny here can accept the new job or leave, it's up to her. She may not even be interested in working more hours.  I know a couple of nannies who work 30-40 hours a week and do not want to work anymore than that, so would turn down a signficant increase in hours like this.

Reality is that part time jobs often have to pay a higher rate in order to attract good candidates, so if this MB were to look for new nanny she may very well be able to find someone great at a lower base rate.  [/quote]
