[quote=Anonymous]We have a part-time evening nanny who helps with driving. She has another job earlier in the day. We guarantee her 20 hours a week, which we pay even when we go on vacation. We often don't use the total 20 hours but still pay the guaranteed rate. When we hired her, we didn't discuss how we would handle additional vacation days at her election. I'm inclined not to pay for the two weeks she wants to take off because (i) we already pay above market rate for one kid; (2) I'll have to try to find a substitute and pay them for those two weeks; (3) we've paid for a lot of vacation days when we were out of town and didn't need her (to quantify, 20-30 days in 2024); and (4) I've given her our vacation schedule far in advance so she could plan her elected travel around it and still get paid. I don't want to lose her as our child is quite attached, but I also don't want to overpay, as I think I've been quite generous with her so far. [/quote]
