A is for Appraisal. Ask for an annual appraisal and pay review to be written into your contract or letter of appointment. This guarantees that these issues will be formally raised every year. It also gives you and your employer the opportunity to raise questions about working practices, routines or other arrangements.
B is for Benefits. No benefits are routinely provided for a newly-qualified or first-time nanny, but some on offer could range from 'tools of the trade' such as a mobile phone or use of a car, through to perks such as membership of a local gym or stabling for a horse. Perks are more likely to be offered once you have settled into the job.
