[quote=Anonymous]"If you aren't upfront about your unusual needs - because paying a nanny 52 weeks a year is standard, just like you'd pay a daycare - then I expect to be paid or I will get another job. " sigh. you and the other nannies posting similar comments are all assuming the MB actually knows that it is standard and is just not saying anything to keep quiet about it. possible but doesn't make much sense to me since if she's truly being sneaky about it she must know she'll run the risk of nanny quitting once she finds out. MUCH more likely is that the MB is simply thinking it's the same as any other hourly job. that is why unless a family states that they are guaranteeing hours, informed nannies need to ASK. it is the nanny who KNOWS this is standard - surely an experienced nanny is also aware that many first time MBs don't know what is and is not standard though. They need to help educate them. sorry - it's the truth. (Here I am of course assuming that most nannies genuinely want a good fit too and not to simply keep job hopping.)[/quote]
