Subject: Nannying on a trip to Hawaii

I have an important question about a trip I am going on as a Nanny to Hawaii with the family I nanny for. Before I took the job, my employer told me that since she was paying my airfare, food, room and board and activities she was going to pay me less than normal, but still pay me for my time there. Now she is saying that she wont pay me until I have worked enough hours to pay for my airfare and then, after I have basically worked off my airfare than she will pay me however many hours I work over that. I make $10 an hour, so in order just to even work off my ticket I would have to work 70 hours in the 2 weeks I am there. In order to make any sort of profit I would need to work at least 20 or 30 hours over that first 70. Is this fair? I mean she is paying for my trip to Hawaii and all but I would make more money just staying home and then trying to make money there would basically mean no free time. The one child is very difficult, but I don't want to offend my employer or be taken advantage of. Please help me! Thank you so much.
