Can nannies get Covid vaccine in MD now?

[Anonymous]

Has anyone’s nanny been able to get Covid vaccine in MD under childcare group? What did they need to provide to prove their qualifications? Anyone been turned away? Don’t want to jump the line but the guidelines are so vague it seems that they should be included (it’s not like they can do their job remotely).

They can’t work remotely, it they’re not doing group care on the frontlines.

Yes they can.
I wrote a letter so my nanny could take with her and she got
her 2 vaccines already.

Where did your nanny get the vaccine? We tried in Howard County and were armed with documentation (letter on my employer's letterhead, W-2, teaching certificates, etc) and were turned away.

They aren't teachers. Stop being selfish and let real teachers get vaccinated first.

I am a teacher back in school (elementary) and we have far more protections than nannies. A nanny can’t spend the day masked with a baby and some of their employers are frontline healthcare workers and essential personnel. I’m masked, my students are masked, and old enough to stay six feet from me.

I don’t mind if nannies and daycare workers jump ahead of teachers of older kids.

My objection is to vaccinating nannies whose employers are wfh prior to vaccinating lower elementary teachers. Sure, prek3 through second grade are masked. But they also reach under their masks, slide them down, and don’t wash their hands. If a nanny is isolated and the employers are wfh, they can wait unless they have a medical reason to jump the line. However, yes, daycare should be first!

Not OP but I think the question was whether nannies could be vaccinated in Maryland, not whether you think they should be.

I hope it ruins your day to know that I received my vaccine as a nanny, weeks ago.

What did the letter say? Im an essential employee and I have been going to work the entire time. I would like the nanny to get vaccinated for some protection.

It was actually back in January when Montgomery county was on phase 1b.
She already had her 2 vaccines.
The letter pretty much said she was a child care provider for our kids.

I am a frontline worker and have been working in a hospital for the entirety of the pandemic. She is immunocompromised. I want her to get protected.
