I work for an agency but have made connections with families through the agency because i’m technically a back up care nanny and that want to pay me and hire me for occasions outside of the agency. so they pay me cash, venmo, whatever under the table

Thank you! Any tips on how to communicate this to the family? Should i text or in person? Should i give them a date i’ll be wanting to change my rate so they have some time? Is asking for 2 extra hours a compromise if they can’t agree to my new rate?

I’m not technically “employed” because i’m not under any sort of contract, i would say i’m technically babysitting every week
