No one said 24/7/ What they often do say, though, is 8-5, M-F.

Thanks for all the perspectives. I'm going to say nothing until the last minute, give two weeks notice and probably look to work part time instead of full so I can be more present at home

Now if you were an employee of my company and were adopting, I'd fully support that. But my company is nowhere near as personal as my children.

Would you fire a nanny for being pregnant too?

We specifically hired a nanny in her 50's.

I have a small business and I refuse to hire women under age 50. Older employees have a terrific work ethic and do not get pregnant or have to take off for childcare.
