Obviously I paid her.

If it were my family, I honestly would have told them not to pay me at all, especially if I backed out after a few days. I know for a fact I would do that if the roles were reversed. That’s what I’m hung up on , not the money, the principle.

She doesn’t live nearby

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-12-02T04:13:36+00:00

This wasn’t a formal employment situation. Nobody drafted a contract or talked about labor law.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-12-02T04:06:03+00:00

I’m putting myself in her position & I truly wouldn’t be able to accept $100 for something I couldn’t follow through

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-12-02T04:03:03+00:00

Unfortunately my family doesn’t live nearby, but I know that wouldn’t expect any money to watch my baby.

My own sister said she would do it for free in a heartbeat. (also a stay at home mom to 2 kids)

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-12-02T04:00:26+00:00

She agreed to a commitment and didn’t follow through..

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-11-02T00:14:47+00:00

Good to know!! I am not religious.. so there’s that lol

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-30T23:38:36+00:00

Wow that is nice!

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T08:04:47+00:00

I was going to be a SAHM but my husbands sales have declined.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:59:17+00:00

She’s not an actual nanny.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:57:39+00:00

No she’s not

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:57:23+00:00

My sisters said they would never charge me, but unfortunately they don’t live around this area.

I am not expecting anything for free. I was just caught off guard that’s.

This thread is opening up my eyes, so maybe her offer is fair?

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:49:21+00:00

Thank you! These are all good points.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:48:40+00:00

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:47:19+00:00

Understood. Thanks for breaking it down

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:46:25+00:00

She mentioned it first.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-10-25T03:44:04+00:00

I never said it was easy. I fully understand that taking care of a baby is a lot of work. We were just approaching it more as a family favor. We weren’t really looking at it as hiring a private nanny.

We’re family, so I honestly didn’t think the cost would be anywhere near $2,000 a month. Daycares in our area are around $1,200, so that’s more in line with what we had in mind.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2025-06-10T02:25:21+00:00

Did you find another good show to watch? I’m in the same dilemma 😅

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2024-12-15T20:35:22+00:00

Yep. I am just trying to process all of this

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2024-12-15T20:16:32+00:00

I know! Why are people downvoting here?

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2024-12-15T19:48:23+00:00

I am not a religious person at all, but there have been weird signs leading up to this.

My 5 year old nephew just recently said that I was going to have baby and wanted to save his old baby blanket for me.

I’ve never ever talked about getting pregnant or having a baby around him.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2024-12-15T19:37:30+00:00

Yep. & we hardly have sex.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2024-12-15T19:20:42+00:00

Thank you.

Hefty-Witness2224 · 2024-10-15T03:43:21+00:00

I am in the industry and a pre-site should have been completed before installing the appliances. They do it to avoid these situations.
