If you have a nanny PT, do you pay for holidays? One of my friends had a nanny FT, but needed to cut down on her hours. I picked up 10 hours, so she is working for my friend 30 hours and for me 10 hours.

One of the days that she is at our house is on Mondays. Yesterday was a holiday, so she did not work. When she came today, she mentioned to me that my friend thought that we should split the holiday pay since she would have been at both houses on Monday. She has a contract with my friend that includes vacation and holidays. I never did a contract with her, and just stipulated the hourly pay that she would get and the number of hours a week (for the record, I am giving her the same as she was getting with my friend, which is more than the "going rate").

Anyway, I will talk to my friend because I think she should have come to me directly about the holiday instead of getting the nanny involved. But I also don't think that I should give holiday pay to someone who is working for 10 hours a week. I feel that I am now put in an awkward position - I don't want to feel like I am sticking it to my friend, but I really don't think I should pay for hours not worked. But does anyone know what is normal in this situation?

These are good things to discuss early on and have a consistent plan. It's good when sharing a nanny with friends that you talk about vacation, sick days and salary/raises and try to have them consistent, or at least fair (e.g. if there's a different number of children). Our friends took some of our nanny's time, and basically paid her the same and followed the same policies. They were happy to do so, since it saved them the trouble of searching for a nanny.

My philosophy is that we have a good nanny/babysitter, this person is a really important person in our life, and I want to keep her happy! I pay her for planned vacation and sick days. Arguing about a few hours here and there could create bad feelings. I feel really strongly about sick days - if my sitter is sick, I want her to stay home and get better, so I pay her. If someone is hard up for cash, they might want to work even if they're sick. I get paid for sick days and vacation days, so why shouldn't she? Just my 2 cents.

My philosophy is that we have a good nanny/babysitter, this person is a really important person in our life, and I want to keep her happy! I pay her for planned vacation and sick days. Arguing about a few hours here and there could create bad feelings. I feel really strongly about sick days - if my sitter is sick, I want her to stay home and get better, so I pay her. If someone is hard up for cash, they might want to work even if they're sick. I get paid for sick days and vacation days, so why shouldn't she? Just my 2 cents.

These are good things to discuss early on and have a consistent plan. It's good when sharing a nanny with friends that you talk about vacation, sick days and salary/raises and try to have them consistent, or at least fair (e.g. if there's a different number of children). Our friends took some of our nanny's time, and basically paid her the same and followed the same policies. They were happy to do so, since it saved them the trouble of searching for a nanny.

My sitter works 12 hrs a week (two six hour days). I pay her in advance monthly (for my convenience).

I asked her in advance what she wanted to do about Memorial Day since Jonathan had the day off, and we wouldn't need her here. We just shifted to another day in the week. So she's coming tomorrow (Wednesday) and her regular Thursday.

I don't think that I would pay her regular holiday time though. I would have a serious talk with your friend. I completely agree that this sort of thing should have been discussed between the two of you first before involving the sitter.

Andrea-

My sitter works 12 hrs a week (two six hour days). I pay her in advance monthly (for my convenience).

I asked her in advance what she wanted to do about Memorial Day since Jonathan had the day off, and we wouldn't need her here. We just shifted to another day in the week. So she's coming tomorrow (Wednesday) and her regular Thursday.

I don't think that I would pay her regular holiday time though. I would have a serious talk with your friend. I completely agree that this sort of thing should have been discussed between the two of you first before involving the sitter.
