[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is something you should have addressed in your employment agreement with your nanny.  Ours says that nanny will work 40 hours per week at $x/hour, and that hours will typically be from a to b, except that, on occasional circumstances and subject to nanny's availability, those hours may change from b to c for a given day.  This typically happens only a few times a year, and our nannies have always been fine with it.  That said, we also are fine when, for example, nanny says I want to go to the doctor in the morning, is it ok if I come in an hour later than usual and stay an hour later at night.     [/quote]

The fact remains that this is NOT their agreement, and that OPs nanny doesn't ask for favors with regard to her schedule. So would it be okay for OP to do what you do, even though it is in contradiction with her agreement with her nanny?[/quote]

Yeah, I would; this is how normal people function in the workplace (and out of it, I should add).  If nanny says no for no reason other than that she has guaranteed hours, then fine, but the day will come when nanny needs a favor of her own.  I can't imagine the working environment with some of you nutjobs.     [/quote]
