[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you need to decide: is the trust broken and the resentment so big you actually need to end the relationship, or do you want to maintain the relationship? It sort of sounds like, really, you're leaning toward the former. But if it's the latter, I think you need to dig deep and find some grace for her. Okay, she made a risky choice and is now suffering the consequences. But if you refuse to give her any pay for the entire additional quarantine period, I think you'll ruin the relationship (or possibly force her to quit anyway).

If I wanted to maintain the relationship, I'd over something like 60% or 70% pay to help cover her bills and not send her into a financial hardship spiral. [/quote]

+1 I can completely understand how frustrating this is and she made a poor choice. But if you want to continue to have a relationship (and nanny is usually more than just an employer relationship) you probably need to give her some grace that she made a mistake, but also still probably needs to pay her bills and is now sick and going through a hard time.
