[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks guys for all the constructive feedback. It's a tough situation. By the way, she is not a nanny per se. She is a young person who is doing distance learning at home herself since universities are closed.  She only comes 2-4  hours on the weekdays to study with the kids. I am always present and she does not take them out of our place. I know I took a risk, so please, I do not need comments about that. But I need to be able to do at least SOME work every day, if not the usual amount....I need to not go crazy and keep my mental health. But this NJ trip is a too much risk for my liking. I don't even think she can enter NJ or enter back into DC from NJ...lets see how the coming days will evolve.  Life might take of issues but yes, I am surprised that she is even entertaining the idea and that her family is so clueless to want her back home for Easter....[/quote]

OP, do you have a neighbor or friend who has been also isolated for 14 days? If both households have been asymptomatic (which doesn't guarantee no virus, but is the best we can do right now), maybe you can swap the kids for 2-3 hours a day? It's not a perfect solution, and it might violate the letter of the stay at home law, but again, it might be the best you can do. [/quote]

OP has not been isolated for 14 days. She's been letting this dumbass student into her house every day.

OP, fire the babysitter. I am usually a HUGE fan of people trying to outsource childcare and housekeeping, but I would avoid having other people in your house right now.[/quote]
