[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a risk you take, you can’t control your nanny. My friend’s entire family is currently stricken with covid including her two feverish babies thanks to the nanny. Turns out the nanny over the weekend attended the funeral of a covid victim and then came back to work sick. Infected the entire family even though she was wearing a mask. [/quote]

I am not sure this is real. And if it is, that’s still different from small gatherings of asymptomatic people.

When would you be comfortable with your nanny seeing her family?  That’s the problem - it’s a risk but you can’t expect to avoid seeing them for 18 months or however long a vaccine takes (or never). Seems like now is as good a time as any to accept this. And re-assess as needed if there is a second wave in the fall/winter. [/quote]

It’s absolutely real. I check in with my friend everyday to make sure she is ok. I wish I was making it up.  Everything is a risk unless you completely isolate yourself. If you need childcare a nanny is less risk than a group setting. It’s good to have open communication with your nanny to see where she is at. My friend’s situation has not deterred me from keeping on my own nanny.[/quote]
