I usually do a combination of unpaid things where I ask if I can take the kid(s) to a specific outing or event and paid times when the parents ask me to provide childcare. Why don't you see how she'd feel about you booking her once a month for a date night or something similar at X rate? Like everything with nannies, the key is communication!

I think a full afternoon of free childcare every week, like another poster does, is taking advantage.

I disagree. Nannies on this board are always lamenting about how much they love their charges... well this nanny is actually proving it. Good for the nanny and a blessing to that child and parents. Not all nannies are in it just for the money.
