Our Nanny was in a car accident two weeks ago. She is taking Uber every day to work. Is this normal for the average nannies? I am feeling guilty because she is basically working one extra hour to pay for her ride. She refused to take metro or ask rides from us or her family. |
Why do you feel guilty? Your nanny is making her own decisions about how she spends her money.

Thank you! My husband said the same but I wish she was comfortable taking metro. That is a lot of money for transportation. |
I agree but it’s her money and her choice. |
maybe insurance is covering it. |
OP here, Maybe. I didn't want to ask since it's her personal life but I thought $30 Uber ride every day was too much.she said she's not comfortable taking metro because of COVID. My husband gave her $100 gift card on Friday to help with Uber. |
Her insurance don't cover Uber service. If she has full cover; insurance Company, provide a car for the time she will need it. |
Why don't you just say, I'm giving you a ride home tonight? |
It's her choice as an adult. There are other options available to her and she is choosing that one. Don't make it your burden because it isn't. |
Does she have an N95 mask? If not, maybe that would help her feel more comfortable on Metro. |
OP here, Thank you everyone for your feedback. I am can just drop it and let Nanny manage her transportation issues on her own. I have a feeling she really doesn't like the attention at the moment. |
I'd rather be on an empty, open metro train with doors opening every few minutes than 3 feet away from a driver who might not be masked. |
This is not accurate. Was recently in an accident and insurance covered due to difficulty in obtaining a rental car. |
Hit post too soon. I was fully reimbursed for 19 days of using Uber. |
What about a packed metro train with everyone inches away? |
