[quote=Anonymous]Nannies need to remember that the only reason this average rate business is an issue is that nannies are non-exempt workers who still insist on getting guaranteed hours that include any hours over 40 that they are likely to be needed. That is a perk that is expensive for families to provide and therefore warrants a reduction in the base rate. That reduction is reflected in an average rate for a 50 hour/week job that may be on par with the base rate for a 40 hour per week job. This isn't deception; it's the market pricing the cost of guaranteed hours into the going rate for nanny care in excess of 40 hours per week. If it weren't for this custom, far more families would split their jobs among two nannies to keep the hourly rate affordable.[/quote]
