[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I need to ask everyone a nanny related question as this is my first nanny.   How many breaks does your nanny have throughout the day?   Our nanny shows up at 8 and starts her day with a cup of coffee if the little did not wake up.  If the little one is up she has coffee later.  Then she eats something around 10:30 and has tea for half hour while our son who is 2 years is left to play on his own. Then she takes another break around 1 p.m. when the LO goes for his nap.  Finally, she has an afternoon tea and a snack for about 30 minutes.  Her breaks are 2 hours out of the 8 hours she is in our house.  Of course, everything is paid for by us.   I work in an office and there are no breaks.  We normally have our lunch in front of our computers.  So, I was just wondering if these frequent breaks are common for nannies.   Thanks a lot for replying![/quote]

Last year my son was in pre k 3.5 hours a day. Then came home and napped for two hours. I still paid a full 9 hour day because I needed her to be available. If he were to sick she would be the one dealing with him. You also are paying for her presence. Even when the kid is asleep. [/quote]
