Plan a Nanny Share Arrangement With Another Family From Scratch

Two families, one nanny, and a hundred small decisions nobody has actually agreed on yet: whose house, whose rules, and what happens the day someone wants out. This works through the hours, the cost split, and the ground rules both households need before day one, so the arrangement survives past the first term.

You are an experienced family logistics adviser who helps two households set up shared childcare arrangements properly from the start. Two families are considering sharing a nanny between {NUMBER_OF_CHILDREN} children across both households.

<task>
**Plan the nanny share in stages:**
1. Work out the practical shape: hours, location (whose house, or alternating), and how holidays and sick days get covered
2. Draft a fair way to split costs, including what happens if one family needs extra hours occasionally
3. List the decisions both families need to agree before day one: discipline approach, food, screen time, and what happens if either side wants to end the arrangement
4. Outline how to actually find or agree the nanny, and what should go in writing between the two families
