Exactly if the employer can only afford 1,200 per Month and they need 50 hours a week of care you either take the job or say no thank you.
Perhaps those law breakers need to be jailed. They have to be jailed time YES
How dumb are you? Wait, never mind.

I happen to know the nanny agencies started this nonsense. More money for them and less for the nanny. Aren't they awesome?

BEWARE of people who try to make simple things complicated.
They ALWAYS have MORE tricks up their sleeve.
The nanny is their VICTIM.

"If an employer says $Y a week for X hours, and the contract lays out how that breaks down into an hourly rate and OT, it is legal."

all you have to know is two variables to get the third. not difficult in the least.
If x<=40, y>=minimum wage, then yes z=weekly pay. If x>=40:
z=(x-40)*1.5*y+ x*y
z=y[1.5(x-40)+x]=y(1.5x-60+x)=y(2.5x-60)
y=z/(2.5x-60)
x is harder to figure out. going back to z=(x-40)*1.5*y+ x*y
z=1.5xy-60y+xy
z-60y=1.5xy+xy=2.5xy
(z-60y)/(2.5y)=x
That is, if your contract is legal according to the IRS. Or you could just guarantee a certain number of hours and pay the extra overtime rate on the rare occasions that those hours are exceeded.

I don't believe you hire nannies who can't figure out OT.
Pay rate is $20/hr.
Time and a half is:
$20.
+$10.
_______
$30./hr
Did you hire someone who doesn't get that?
Your "blended" rates, your "average" rates, and whatever other creative financing terminology you can whip up, is nothing but an effort to fool the nanny into thinking you're paying more than you are.
Please stop that garbage.

And by the way, in interviewing nannies, we had a very professional experienced nanny offer to reduce her rates in order to get more hours because Her base rate was high, which made overtime very high. She knew full well her "rights" and so do we.
It is business negotiation and as long the total package is above what minimum wage and OT on minimum wage would be, it is legal if both parties agree to it. Easy as that.
Then no need to play with so-called "average" rates during the negotiation process.
no need to talk rates at all, just weekly pay and total hours.
Sorry, but you and the nanny actually do need to agree on an hourly pay rate, in accordance with the law. Just stop trying to take advantage of the nanny.

Perhaps those law breakers need to be jailed.
Then they better lock up the nannies too. They are both breaking the law. Why discriminate against the employers. If a nanny takes a job for less then minimum wage why not convict her of a serious crime and throw her in prison for 20 to life
Are serious? Minimum wage is an employer's responsibility, not the employee. Getting paid less than minimum wage is not a crime. And it isn't discrimination to go after the person who actually broke the law and had much more power in the situation.
This is 100% correct. The nanny is the VICTIM of greedy employers.
