I work for two hospital doctors so I never get federal holidays off (since they don't). But our library is closed and my charge won't see his beloved mail trucks today!
Just wondering if other nannies are off... |

| MB here. My nanny gets all fed holidays. I assume that's true for the vast majority of fed families? Who wouldn't want the extra chance to play with their kid when they get a day off? I think the mutual respect between us and our shared nanny is based on the fact that both families parent whenever we can, so weekends, holidays, snow days, early dismissals, and max vacation days each year (coordinated between both families as much as we can -- usually about 50%) she has off and we have our kids. She only has the "right" to weekends and named fed holidays (and 2 weeks of vacation + 5 sick/personal days that she chooses) per our contract, but could the nanny really respect us if we didn't want our kid whenever one of us has off? It's also nice for the other kid to get the nanny alone sometimes when one of the two DBs (non-Feds) has a non-fed holiday day off. |

+ 1 I LOVE Monday holidays! It feels like such a luxury and makes the rest of the week fly by. |

| No. MB and DB don't get all fed holidays off. They make up for it in other ways though so it works out quite well for me! |

Yes! I'm in my PJs and am planning on a Netflix binge day today!
And I so agree what a Monday off makes the week fly by. |

| I'm off but home with my 2 year old who got up coughing at 5:45 am and has been up ever since. Being sick does nothing to slow this kid down. I'm honestly exhausted because there are no breaks for me. 10 hour days with 2 infants and evenings and weekends with my own toddler who is the energizer bunny! |

| Nope. I'm working and I work for 2 feds. I should have read my contract closer. Lesson learned. |

| I'm working so MB and DB can do their taxes. I did get to sleep in a bit (came in at 9 instead of 7am). |
