Is your 66 year old nanny onboard with your “plan”?! Most employers give the nanny time off during kids’ covid outbreaks not to mention she’s over 65 and more vulnerable to complications!

Yes, actually our plan was her idea. She’s truly a part of our family, highly educated and very healthy, and very covid-cautious. She’s also very devoted to our children. We would absolutely give her paid time off and she knows it.

I don't put people I care about at risk, even if it's their idea. That's a really selfish plan.

Our nanny would not stay away. I know her.

Flame why bother you are clearly nothing

So would you try and keep the 2 year old who is unvaccinated away from everyone else? Just have one parent with a mask on come in and out of the room where 2 year old is quarantined?

I wouldn't want to count on two parents with covid being well enough to take care of 3 little kids. In some of the families I've known it hasn't turned out that way.

Given that, I'd probably isolate one parent with the sick child(ren), and take what precautions I could to prevent spread to the other parent. Things like separate bathroom for sick and healthy, if that's an option. Good masks if they need to be together. Eating separately (unexposed parent cooks and leaves food for them). Lots of ventilation, homemade air filters etc . . .

It probably wouldn't work, but I'd want to try.

We just don't have space- small house, no finished basement, etc. No way I can keep a 2 or 7 year old in a bedroom for 5+ days.

We haven’t had it yet. I might isolate myself or spouse away from the kids, while recognizing it’s basically an exercise in futility. But we might try to keep the kids from getting it. If one of the kids got it, no way I would isolate them. Frankly, it seems cruel to me.

We did not isolate tween (no one else got it, as far as we know). I can’t imagine isolating a young kid unless you are medically vulnerable.

I have kids 5, 3, and 1 month. When my 3yo got it, we didn't isolate him but everyone other than the baby wore a mask all day and we kept all the windows open and fans on. Nobody else but me got it, and I was exposed to my 3yo before we all started wearing masks.

We have not gotten Covid (yet) and I cannot imagine isolating my young children (4 and 5). If they get it, we'll continue to interact with them and if we get it, so be it. (We are not a high-risk family.)

We are a medically healthy family of five. When one got it, we made sure that we all got it and we did. Just made it easier to not worry about who has it, who could have it, getting tested, etc. a lot easier that we were all sick at the same time. Flame away!

Kids are 6, 5 and 2. Do we isolate one of them if they get Covid. Obviously the 2 year old can’t be vaccinated but everyone else is and adults have been boosted. Just trying to figure out for if/when we get exposed or have Covid. It seems inevitable at this point.
