[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  That is what is in our contract.  But last year was our first year with our nanny and because she had vacation planned before we hired her we let her take the two weeks as she had planned them.  However, she wants to take the two weeks again this year and we said "ok, but one of them is unpaid because of what our contract says -- we choose one of them" and she says "but you let me last year so there is precedent".

We're not budging, but wanted to make sure we were in line with at least some of the current benefits out there.[/quote]

I responded earlier, but in your case, I think you should stand firm. She agreed to the contract, and you were gracious enough to honor her vacation last year. I'm not sure I would even have gone so far as to give the second week unpaid, unless she had already planned and paid for a trip. Sorry she is trying to take advantage of your kindness. Nannies get screwed so often, it really pisses me off when other nannies burn decent and generous employers. [/quote]
