[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's strange but considering my husband got a concussion while playing with my son at a playground and my son accidentally running into/tackling his dad, I can definitely see how it's possible she did actually get a concussion from your daughter kicking her. I would choose to believe your nanny and tell her you're so sorry that happened and continue to pay her. I would not demand an explanation unless you need to for insurance purposes. Does it feel scammy to you because you don't trust your nanny or because you can't afford to have her gone right now/need her working and are therefore choosing not to believe her?

Running into someone is far, far more likely to cause a concussion than what the OP described. Further, you don't need a week to recover from a concussion. This really doesn’t make any sense.[/quote]

Yes. You often need longer than a week for concussion recovery. The op framed this as a scam so it’s  being discussed that way. The nanny didn’t communicate well which can lend itself to that perception.  But also if she truly has a brain injury calling anyone is prob last thing on the list.

Time will tell what the real story is though. [/quote]

OP
I didn’t mean to frame it as a scam, some of the feedback here has been helpful. But I do think it’s a scam as she just wanted a paid week off and didn’t want to be upfront as she’s missed so many days over the last few weeks. But I will share an update when I have one. We paid her for the week but we haven’t heard from her [/quote]

With your above post there is no way you can continue with this nanny.  You do not trust her and you cannot hide your feeling.  She will pick up on your feeling and probably quit.  Let her go and you need to stay home and take care of your children..

Trust is the foundation of any 
employee/employer relationship.  You don't trust her and if she reads DCUM, she will have zero respect and trust for you and I do not blame her.[/quote]

Two words. Retaliatory Discharge. Do NOT listen to this person. [/quote]

Apparently you have zero reading comprehension.  [/quote]
