[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am also a lawyer at a large firm so I get it. But my husband works so we have a full-time nanny. We also have a housekeeper. We kept both home (still paid) for four months and then realized that we could accept the risks of having them back. Or kind of that we had to accept the risks. It was just too much for us to be able to do our jobs and keep the house clean and take care of our young kids. Everything is a risk/benefit analysis, and the risks you are facing here are high. Yes, it does seem somewhat silly to hire a nanny if you have a stay at home parent, but that parent clearly isn’t doing everything that is needed, so you need help. Find a cleaner who will open the windows of each room while they clean it and wear a mask. Find a nanny whose lifestyle you feel comfortable with. Please get some help. I completely understand the feelings you are having - the overwhelming depression, the crying, the fear that you’re going to break down at the next thing. Please, please get some help. The risk of getting the virus from someone who is being careful is less than the risk that you are going to fall apart. Hugs. [/quote]
