[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding is it is common to specify that one week of paid vacation is to be used during a week of the family’s choosing and one is to be used during a week of the nanny’s choosing. That’s how friends have done it. I would think you’d still have to pay her if you go on additional weeks of vacation but at least it covers one. [/quote] This was common about 10+ years ago, but not since. It's unsustainable for someone to only get 5 vacation days per year. [/quote] It's only 5 days of "free choice" vacation days. There's also the typical holidays, plus the family's own vacations. That is plenty in most cases. [/quote] OK so for example if one single thing comes up in the year and the nanny has to take a day of PTO for a funeral, car repair, jury duty, medical or dental procedure, home repair, sick child or pet, bank/dmv/other appt that's typically during business hours etc then they cannot have a vacation week that year.[/quote]
