[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like there have been a lot of threads lately about nannies being upset when they are notified in advance of a sick child and then are exposed to child with symptoms of one illness or another.  Do people really believe that they are going to get sick every time they are exposed, however briefly??   I'm around sick kids so often and I rarely get sick so I never think I'm being rude if I don't inform people coming to my home that someone in it has a sniffle.  [/quote]

Is the distinction between sniffling and vomiting really that difficult to discern? You seem to be exerting a fair amount of effort on being purposefully obtuse.

And yes, to the other PP, it's possible the parents didn't know. If that were the case, however, I'd have expected OP to report that they were mortified and apologetic and she did not mention any kind of reaction from the parents that would excuse asking a nanny into your home where anyone, particularly germy children, are vomiting.[/quote]

PP here.  Not trying to be obtuse.   I assumed OP was upset because he/she was not notified about being exposed to a potentially contagious illness.  A sniffle can be indicative of a contagious illness just as much as someone vomiting so feel free to re-read my post with the last phrase reading "someone just puked" instead.  Of course, puking could just mean food poisoning while a sniffle could be allergies.  [/quote]
