Reminder Nannies : weekly or monthly flat rates always benefits the employer, not the nanny…
If you agree to a weekly or monthly flat rate, you may not be paid for each hour worked, or your hourly rate may be too low or even below minimum wage!
As you all know, nowadays, parents always come home late and always forget that their nanny also has a life outside of work so flat rates are not fair to nannies!
So our tip today is #negotiate an hourly rate rather than a weekly or monthly flat rate!
And also make sure that you get guaranteed hours at your rate + overtime when applicable.
Families must pay you your guaranteed hours whether they need you or not, so your can be guaranteed a certain weekly paycheck with your guaranteed hours…
