[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way would my office allow this. My office won't even allow you to telework if there are children in your home during work hours (even if watched by nanny or if it's a snow day for the kids). [/quote]

That's crazy. I have a home office and my nanny watches my child the entire time without me being needed. Never had a problem. [/quote]

This is OP and that seems crazy to me too. A girl in our office teleworks and she has a nanny (but she makes a ton more money than I do so it's worth it for her).[/quote]

Why is this crazy? Telework means you are still WORKING, you are just working at home rather than in the office.  You still need someone to watch your child while you are WORKING unless you can do all your work while the baby naps and your baby cooperates with that plan.[/quote]

The person saying "that's crazy" was responding to the rule that the child cannot be in the home at all, even while supervised by someone else.  Most parents who telework have the child in their homes, being watched by a nanny or a parent.  The rule that says the child can't be in the house is pretty unusual.[/quote]
