No, that's inappropriate. It misses the whole point of a vacation.

But it’s not the nanny’s vacation, right?

So she is on call? She is bound to be available at their whim during the 2 weeks? You are the stupidest idiot.

DP. Yes it is when the family decided to take theirs and the nanny is not nannying. Duh!

What I'm getting from many of the comments is that children need to learn and accept that their love for their nanny is not important and is actually inappropriate. The nanny is just an employee and is to be treated as such no matter how you feel about the nanny. Is that right?

That’s the opinions of just a couple of trolls. They haunt this forum like no other. We’ve heard from enough nannies who are fine with a call from their charges.

These trolls always attack the OP if she’s the employer of a nanny. They just parrot the same nonsense with their poor grammar and pathetic attempts at insulting other posters.

What you’re missing is that no one said that the kid can’t have feelings. You need to accept that the nanny is not their endentured slave who need to make herself available during her time away from work.
Do you have time away from work? Do you want your boss to contact you whenever he/she wants and you must make yourself available?
You only care about the child’s feelings and dismiss the nanny as having no autonomy.
Do you give in to your child on everything? If your child only wants to eat ice cream, do you care more about your child’s “feelings” over better judgment?

Okay so as a number of nannies have written, they’re fine with a call or FT. Why can’t the nanny decide if she wants to take the call or not?

I would hate to work for you. You must live on a plantation 100 years back in time.

No, honey. You’re arrogance and sense of entitlement is showing.

The OP should not ask if nanny wouldn’t mind being available. That conversation should never happen.

Do you honestly think a nanny will say she’s NOT ok with a call? “No boss, I won’t take a call from Timmy.”
