Many full-time Nannies only get two per year.

And many part-time Nannies do not rely completely on their PT income.
So paying rent on a PT salary is usually not the case.

You don’t know what ALL nannies rely on their PT income. Maybe some do rely on their part time income.


PP Here:
Yes, I know.
Just giving my general opinion here.

Not trying to be snarky at all.

I think three weeks of paid vacation is a lot for a part-time Nanny.

I would just let her know way ahead of time that you will not need her for certain weeks.

That way, she can plan ahead financially.


This is how you lose a good nanny. Please do not listen to this poster. Guarantee your part time nanny’s hours and pay her.

Pay her. As a nanny I wouldn’t accept a job like this without pay. People depend on their paycheck to live. What if she can’t find other babysitting jobs? It’s not about “planning financially” it’s abkht being able to pay your rent or not.

Yes, of course you pay her! No decent nanny would work without guaranteed hours.

if you want her to keep that time open for you, you pay her for the time. if it doesn't matter to you if she says she can't show up for a few weeks out of the year because she took another babysitting job, then don't pay her.

We are looking to employ a part time nanny - three days per week. There are some weeks that my husband will be off so we will not need her. Approximately three weeks the whole year. Are we required to pay her anyway for that time?
