[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP -- please ignore all these crazy anti-vaxxers. You are completely reasonable in wanting your nanny to get the vaccine. Here's what I would do: tell her that it's important to you and your family that she get the vaccine, offer to help her get an appointment, but make it clear that it's her decision. I would not give her an ultimatum because I wouldn't want any potential liability if she happens to be one of the exceedingly rare few who have a serious reaction. Then I would wait. Let your nanny see you and DH get fully vaccinated and be fine. If by June she has made no effort to get the vaccine, let her go. That may seem harsh, but trust me, you'll find another nanny and you can hire someone who is vaccinated (require proof before hiring).

When my kids were young, the idea of changing our childcare situation was hard to wrap my mind around, but honestly childcare is fluid, things change, and kids can benefit from having someone different take care of them. I know you really like your nanny, but this would be a deal breaker for me.[/quote]

It's not about being an anti vaxxer. It's about the fact that this vaccine is brand spanking new, has an emergency authorization, and is pretty hard to get right now. Down the road, sure require it. But damn, give it some time. [/quote]
