Let us know if you find someone open to that, OP.

Nope. The market is so hot right now there's zero reason for someone to make concessions like that.
Maybe if you offer full health insurance

Who do you envision would be interested in a position that cut their wages in half after a few months? Seriously, OP. The only type of person I could think of is a teacher and she’s going to cost you or a college student who is just a babysitter.
Hire a summer babysitter and then try to find an after school and weekend nanny (but be prepared to pay a lot).

Be upfront with your potential nanny since the beginning OP. That's the best thing you can do. As a nanny, I hate when families are not honest about their upcoming intentions and near future changes. . I wouldn't take a position when my FT position will only last 6 months; just to find out later that parents tell me that they won't need me FT Hours and in the fall and are planning to cut my hours and become a PT. That's why most nannies prefer start a new position with babies. No toddlers and 4 and up. It would work best for you to hire a Summer Nanny and in the fall Hire a P-T nanny after school.

College students are unreliable flakes. Some by nature and some by circumstance (class schedules change every semester). They’re also glued to their phones and full of drama.

Only if you doubled her hourly rate for the 20 hour weeks.

No. I can’t imagine that will work for anyone. Plus after school nannies are in the highest demand and the highest paid. After school Nannie’s are pulling in $35 an hour in my neighborhood.

Two separate Nannie’s. A professional nanny gets guaranteed hours

Are nannies interested in positions that the hours will change in the fall? I want to be transparent... but I don't know if anyone would be interested in this working situation?
I'm going to start looking for:
June - August: 40 hours a week
September and on: 20 hours a week, weekday afternoons and weekends
Should I be looking for two separate nannies (one now for summer and one later for fall) or are there nannies who are open to less hours in a few months?
Two kids (3 and 1 years old)
