[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nanny has minimum guaranteed hours, but we change the schedule every week, so if we don't need her to come Tuesday morning because we're taking Larla to the doctor, we can (and often do) ask her to make up the hours elsewhere. We need a flexible schedule because my husband works shift work, so we need different childcare hours every day. Nanny was OK with this (or we would have hired someone else). We guarantee 50 hours/week minimum, but use between 45 and 55 in practice, so it's not like she's getting nickle and dimed; that said, if we don't need her to work Tuesday morning, we absolutely might ask her to stay until the kids' bedtime on Tuesday so that we can do a date night. We have "core" hours of 8-7 (when she has to be available) and we ask her to use her best efforts to be available outside of those hours, but understand she may not be (and has some running conflicts that we plan around).[/quote] Lol [/quote]
