[quote=Anonymous]No personal experience, but wanted to answer the first part of your question - "disability coverage" for a pregnancy/maternity leave is not some automatic thing you get. There is no federal benefit, or even any statewide ones that I'm aware of, here. When people take short term disability related to pregnancy/childbirth, it's because their employer PAYS for short-term disability insurance coverage, and I assume with a single employee, that would be cost prohibitive for you to offer. Now, if you're in DC, there is at least partially paid maternity leave available for eight weeks. Here's some basic info: https://does.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/does/publication/attachments/PFL%20-%208%20Weeks%20One%20Pager%201.5%5B1%5D.pdf But, in order for your nanny to qualify, you're going to need to pay her on the books from jump, which of course means paying into the system with your employer taxes.
