[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. It's hard to write someone I hardly know a check for $4000/month. What if she quits after a month? What if she messes up and we want to fire her? We hired her because the references were great. A lot of my friends are saying don't pay her, she can get unemployment. It's a lot of money to feel like I'm throwing away. I would definitely expect to pay a daycare or nanny who had been with us for 1 year+, or even a few months.[/quote] Look, your concerns are valid. No one anticipated this virus. If you don’t live up to your end of the contract you have to just dismiss her. Nannies are in high demand right now. I doubt she’ll have trouble finding another job. But there is no way - legally, morally or ethically - that you can not pay her and expect her to be around when this is over. [/quote]
