we brought a tent thing called "lil nursery" which was great since it blocked the rays and protected from the sand. ususally the hotels have a pack n play and fridge. [ Reply | More ]

It would be hard to argue that you have to pay taxes for a dog walker. Do they really qualify as your employee as opposed to a contractor (based on hours, etc). For a housekeeper and a nanny I would insist on workers comp and disability insurance. For those reasons, I would want to pay on the books. [ Reply | More ]

because if they ever get audited/caught, it's going to come back on you since it is your responsibility as the employer. [ Reply | More ]

Dona, tell me what kind of discipline you use. Have you ever stolen from an employer? When do you think a child needs tylenol? how do you plan to socialize my infant? will you sit in the park and chat with your friends while you shove cheerios at my child, strapped into the stroller? Will you demand more vacation a year into employment than we agreed to up front? Do you have your own children? Who takes care of them? How will you get to work each day? [ Reply | More ]

do you have any medical conditions which will prevent you from executing your duties to a reasonable standard? how do you get to work? do you have a back up plan when your transportation isn't working? Do you wear a watch? Do you carry a cellphone? Do you wear perfume or chew gum? Do you think that kids who wet their pants are "bad"? How about boys who cry when they get hurt? [ Reply | More ]

have you ever in your life smoked? when was the last time you were around any illegal substances? did you partake of those substances? why did you leave your last employer? if you found a wallet on the street with $500 in it, what would you do? you say you treat kids like your own... how do you treat your own kids? will you read to my infant 5 times a day? Will you help my toddler learn multiplication tables? when my mother comes to town to visit will you cook for her? how do you feel about trans fats? do you regularly eat hot dogs from vendors on the street and will you feed them to my child? are you willing to adopt a macrobiotic raw food diet so my child never has to witness anyone ingesting inappropriate food?
