[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm confused. You are saying you cannot let the nanny take time off work and that is why you may need to let the nanny's mom stay with you/her. But at the same time, you said the nanny wouldn't want to go be with the mom at the mom's residence. So where else could she care for her?

I think the COVID risk is low - but this might be a good question for the hospital discharging doctor. I agree with others that it would be reasonable to give your nanny some time off and I totally agree that this is the issue that comes with hiring a nanny. What if your nanny was the one sick? Then regardless of your work schedule you'd be forced to deal with it. But regardless of all that...if you don't want to give the nanny time off and the nanny's mom needs to stay somewhere other than home, then I'm not sure what other choice you would have.[/quote]

I think OP is saying that nanny asked for the nanny's mom to come live at OP's house -- not that the nanny asked for time off.  OP please clarify.[/quote]

Yes. My nanny wants to take care of her mom and she can only do that at my house (I don’t know the details of her mom’s living situation, but I think she lives in a nursing home where she works with her husband). Her daughter can’t stay there. My nanny wants to take care of her mom herself and the only way to do that is at my house. 
Nanny did not ask for time off,  but I am considering it so that my kids can be properly cared for (by me) and away from someone that is leaving the hospital right now... [/quote]
