[quote=Anonymous]It is the rule if you want to keep your nanny, yes. How do you expect her to adapt to the loss of a week's worth of pay? She'll find another job if she's even halfway qualified. You can ask her to come to the house and do a more in-depth version of her normal duties which might include cleaning all the baby toys, a deep clean of the nursery, organizing the kids' closets or sorting through outgrown clothes, mending torn clothes, batch cooking/freezing, but nothing she wouldn't normally do (no cleaning your whole house or washing the car or being your pet sitter) and yeah, she'll get some bonus time off. This is why typical nanny contracts specify that the nanny gets X weeks of vacation, with usually half of them at the employer's discretion - that way you can overlap her vacation with yours. So for instance, I get 2 weeks of vacation and get to choose one of the weeks. (I also happened to get a third week this year because my bosses took an additional trip.)[/quote]
