## Frequently asked questions

### What should a nanny contract include?

Duties, the weekly schedule, hourly pay and overtime, paid time off and holidays, house rules, privacy, and notice to end. Each one is a clause you can edit.

### Can I use this for a nanny share or a live in nanny?

Yes. The nanny picks the arrangement in the form, and you change the bracketed terms such as hours and duties to match.

### Is this a sample nanny contract?

Yes. It's a starting point, not legal advice. Check pay, overtime and tax rules for household employers in your state before you use it.
