On-Going Nanny Service
We
also offer short-term On-Going nanny service. This
service is for families that need a nanny to work
a set schedule every week. This could last anywhere
from 2 weeks up to 6 months. The goal of On-Going care
is to help families get through a short term lapse
in childcare without having to hire a permanent nanny.
On-Going care is a "pay-as-you-go" service that is
non-contractual and ends when either the family no
longer needs care or the nanny is no longer available
to provide care. It is possible to have more than
one nanny in a given time period, but every effort
is made to offer consistency to the family. Membership
in the Temporary service is required for an On-Going
situation.
On-Going Fee Schedule:
- Search/Consultation Fee: $75 (Fee is non-refundable,
but fee is applied to Annual Membership if a nanny
is placed)
- Annual Membership Fee: $250
- Daily placement Fee: $25 per day OR $450 per
month (whichever is less)
Nanny Wages:
- $15-$18/hour (four hour minimum per day)
- Each family employs the nannies. However,
you are not required to withhold taxes from the
nanny’s salary
unless you pay the temporary nanny more than $1,500
per year. If you choose to claim the temporary nanny,
please request the social security number at the time
of service from the nanny. Annie’s Nannies
Household Staffing does not provide social security
numbers.
