[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, do you plan to use the nanny until 7 daily? If so, is the nanny aware of this aspect of the change? If not, do you have a limit to the number of days she stays late?  Will you ever go past 7pm? This could easily not work if everyone is not on the same page. [/quote]

We made it clear that she is expect to work until 7 whenever we need it. And we never need her past 7 pm. She has never stayed past 7 pm. We will usually only need her to stay until 7 1-2 days with short notice. [/quote]

Sounds like a fair solution. Having a nanny on call does cost more. I am very flexible, but I am always asked in advance and have the opportunity to say no if I have plans. Last minute late days are a whole different ballgame. And I understand that your schedule is such that this is your need. Other professions are as well, but it does cost you more to retain a nanny for those varying hours. If you utilize this time more than 3 times per week, I foresee that becoming problematic for your nanny, so just be mindful of her personal time. [/quote]
