Would you pay her for 24 hours those three days (per contract) or would you pay her for 27 hours which is what she probably would have worked if we were not out of town? If 27, do you pay all 27 at the regular pay since she did not work those and it is essentially bonus PTO?


If I wanted to keep her I would psy her for 40 hour.


You'd pay her 40 hours for those 3 days, and 18 for the two days she actually worked? That makes no sense.

As I understand it, OP has guaranteed 40 hours, say 9-5 M-F. But usually nanny works 9-6 and gets an hour of OT each day.

So, Monday she works 9-6, Tuesday she works 9-6. Wed to Friday the family is away and nanny doesn’t work. I would pay 42 hours for the week, with 2 hours at the overtime rate, or to put it another way, I would pay for the 9-5 hours on the 3 days she didn’t need to come to work. Technically, you probably don’t need to pay the extra hours on Monday and Tuesday at 1.5, but I would.

This. How would 24 or 27 make sense if she has guaranteed hours for 40?!


Because nanny is working the other two day so those 18 hours aren’t leave.

I wouldn’t think you would be required to pay your Nanny any OT monies since she technically will not be “on-the-clock” actively working.

This. That’s the point of guaranteed hours and pay. The nanny can count on the stability of a steady pay check as if she had worked a regular work week since she was available even if you decide you don’t need her; if you expect her return back to work when you get back.

Whatever you normally pay in a week is what you should pay. If the OT is every week and expected then I would pay that.

Our contract with our nanny guarantees 40 paid hours a week. In reality, we have been using her 45 hours a week (4 hrs overtime on top of the 40 hours at regular pay). We are leaving town for a long weekend and she will get three days off as a result. Would you pay her for 24 hours those three days (per contract) or would you pay her for 27 hours which is what she probably would have worked if we were not out of town? If 27, do you pay all 27 at the regular pay since she did not work those and it is essentially bonus PTO?
