[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does the leave have to be paid? I'm ambivalent about maternity provisions in general, but couldn't the nanny's employer give her unpaid leave for 3 months, with a guarantee of getting her job back at the end? Is that not good enough? Is it really impossible for a nanny to save up 3 months of basic living expenses before taking leave? And if that is impossible... should you really be having a child....? If you don't have enough money on your nanny salary to save for 3 months of living expenses, then how are you going to pay for childcare once you go back to work?[/quote]

What are you paying your nanny? Seriously, if it’s enough to live on plus save three months of expenses, I’d live to apply!!! Beats my current income for sure. [/quote]

I don't have a nanny. I'm just asking a question. And like I said, if you are truly unable to save even 3 months of living expenses... are you really financially read to have a child....? I'm not saying it would be saved overnight, but you have a lot of time to plan if you're thinking of having a child.[/quote]
