[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a live-in nanny who works six days a week, 8 am to 6.30 pm. In practice, her Saturdays are much shorter than this. We started her at $400/week when we had a 1-year old, and raised to $500/week when his sister was born two years later. [/quote] So in other words, you think your nanny has no other options, so you don't feel it's necessary to pay for her time. Lovely. I ran the numbers: 5.5 days at 10.5 hours: 57.75 hours $400/57.75=$6.93/hour $500/57.75=$8.66/hour You can't even be bothered to pay minimum wage. Please be aware that your nanny can go back and sue you for the difference between what you paid and minimum wage. I certainly hope you aren't in MD, if you are and she does, you'll owe overtime too.[/quote] This. People should learn the law.[/quote] The law says you can make room and board part of the compensation.[/quote] Where?[/quote]
