[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Out for illnesses and emergencies. How dare she?!?![/quote]

OP here. I don't blame her, things happen, but I'm just realizing that I don't think we're set up in a way to handle a lot of time off. She took 37 days off last year not including 13 paid holidays, and while I was able to cover them with my PTO/get last minute help, it was a struggle sometimes to get coverage. The more I think about it, the more I think it might make sense to transition to daycare instead. Regardless, that doesn't solve my immediate problem of jury duty.[/quote]
That is absolutely insane. How many days off does she have in her contract? We have 4 kids very so ready apart in age so had Nannie’s for years. We gave them 2 weeks off (plus any extra time when we were not here didn’t count), federal days & 5 sick/personal days per year. Any sick days they didn’t use we just paid extra for them at the end of the year. I think in 15 years if Nannies, we had about 4 sick days total. You have a nanny problem. 
Lots of our friends use White House nNnies for temp care.  We had looked into it at one point and it’s easy to set up, even last minute. Do not switch to day care or you’ll have a ton of days w/ at least one sick kid at home. [/quote]
