Employment Conditions
It is important that nannies are flexible. However, both employers and nannies should ensure that they agree a written contract before the nanny starts his/her new job. REC members are able to provide model contracts and our advice is that any contract should include details of the following:
- The nanny's duties
- Start date
- Pay, including details of reviews, whether paid weekly or monthly and whether the rate quoted is before or after any statutory deductions. Remember employers are responsible for making deductions.
- Holidays, including when these are to be taken
- Sick pay
- Hours of work
- Notice periods for termination of employment
- Confidentiality
- Pension arrangements
- Accommodation arrangements, if necessary
- Travel arrangements and costs where applicable
