[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - I get you. I’ve been tempted to say something as well. One coworker has a five and a six-year-old and his entire summer childcare plan was teleworking. 
Another lady and a different office watches her five-month-old granddaughter.
Day cares are open. There’s no reason for them to not have some form of child care at this point in time.[/quote]

There is no way in hell my young kids would be in daycare right now.  [/quote]

Then you should get a nanny. For about 3-4 months many of us at my employer with young kids tried to make this work—taking care of kids while teleworking. It’s been over a year and a half. All of us now have childcare—whether if daycare, nanny, or family. OP I wouldn’t say anything (Because who knows the situation truly) but it would definitely frustrate me. [/quote]

Short of accompanying nanny to the vaccine center for both shots, there is NO WAY TO VERIFY their vaccine status.  And no way to monitor their interactions and risk profile of a breakthrough infection (do they live with a large extended family, perhaps essential public facing workers? unvaccinated children attending school or daycare? unvaccinated adults?).  Short of a live-in virtually lockeddown nanny, a nanny is hardly low risk.[/quote]
