[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. I have three weeks vacation of my choosing, with caveat that they can refuse to honor it if I don’t give at least a month notice. Then I have five days of sick leave which I can use with no notice whatsoever.  my policy is that if I’m sick with something that’s not too severe and that logic indicates I probably got from the children (meaning I would not be contagious to them because they’re already sick with that thing or they just got over being sick with that thing), then I will usually just work through it. If I have a cold or a headache or I’m lethargic, then I go to work anyway and we order pizza for dinner and watch a lot of TV.

In practice, I always give as much notice as possible or planned vacation and they bend over backwards to make it work, even if I only have two weeks notice that I want to take a long weekend. Because I work a split schedule and can do doctors appointments while the kids are in school, I have an actually used a sick day since before Covid hit because I’m a pod with my nanny family and we are all very Covid cautious so none of us have had Covid or anything else too serious.[/quote]
