[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, please explain what, besides self-interest, would motivate the nanny to seek a job which allows her to bring her child. [/quote]

Yes, please tell us. As a nanny I can see where some of the "pros" to bringing your child with you can actually be good if needed, but none of them are necessary either. It is not something that the family and their child would miss out on if the nanny WASN'T bringing their own child to work. There is always another way to get the benefit (social interactions, learning to share etc can all be done with other situations). The biggest pro to a family would be a lower cost, as that is not something that would happen without that situation (or another share). The biggest pro to the nanny is having her child with her, and I have to say that pretty much trumps the pro to the family. They could do an actual share with another family and get a lower rate, still share the nanny with another child, still get all the "benefits" of having the 2 kids with the nanny instead of the one only.

So please tell us what else motivates the nanny to bring her child to work other than her own self-interest of having her child with her. You might say it can be a win-win-win. but if looking at it with how much of a benefit it is for all those involved, I see a percentage of 100% being split more like this: 50% to you, and 25% each for both the family and kids. You (the nanny) gain the most from this type of situation.[/quote]
