[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, I will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars over many years that I otherwise don't need just in case there is a pandemic that locks us in for a few months.  Hasn't happened in a hundred years, but you can never  be too cautious.[/quote]

I don’t think that is what OP is saying at all.

My kids are still very young but having an educated nanny, a former teacher, care for them all day - in quarantine and not - is a great thing.  We are not wealthy but we really sacrifice to have her.  When the kids are both in elementary school we will work something out to keep her.  Our nanny is older and has already said she’d like to cut her hours when the kids are in school.  [/quote]

Of course that is what she is saying.

And if your situation works out as planned, then you are exceptionally lucky that your nanny will want to cut her hours, right around when you need her less.  You do realize that is very unusual.

In almost all cases, your great nanny wants and needs full time work.  So, you either pay for full time when you really need quite a bit less, or you give up the nanny.  The unicorn situation you envision is not what most people face.[/quote]
