[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow! In your initial post when you complained that your nanny was just coming off of 6 months off, most would assume you were actually paying her for that time period as most decent people did. Instead, you actually laid her off because she didn’t have private transportation (probably because she couldn’t afford it on the salary that you pay and you weren’t willing to either assist or give her a transportation supplement). Then you apparently decamped to live with family, where you were probably able to telework and benefit from free childcare, while the taxpayer paid your nanny’s unemployment but you justify it in your mind because she made more than she would have working for you. With the current demand for nannies I have no idea why yours decided to come back to work for you but you should definitely fire her now for attending her brother’s funeral so that she can find a decent employer.[/quote]

We did pay her from March 16 to the end of June when we left DC, and she was the one who told me most of her friends were “furloughed” and she could just file for unemployment so we wouldn’t need to pay her for the summer.

We also told her we completely understand if she wants to find a new job but she said she was happy to have some time off and wanted to return in the fall.[/quote]
