[quote=Anonymous]OP here -- let me be clear.  I'm not going to tell her she can't take vacation.  I believe she deserves vacation.  It's more the issue that she did not communicate with me when we had earlier conversations regarding my leave situation and our vacations or my request that she try to plan at least one of her vacations around ours.  At no point did she say, "no that won't really work for me," or "well I'll try but I'm not sure that I can do that,"  instead she said "yes, of course, I understand."  So I'm upset on a personal level that I thought we had an understanding and that we apparently did but only until a better plan arose -- no this isn't a family vacation this is an impromptu trip with a friend to another country.  And yes our contract provides for her to plan one of her vacations around ours and to give 4 weeks notice.  But as I said, she never read the contract -- which I didn't know until after hiring her -- and she is a good nanny in all other respects.  I don't think of myself as a queen.  I am extremely accommodating to her and respectful of her time and her life.  I just feel she wasn't of mine.  And that makes me unhappy and realizing perhaps I'm giving more to this relationship than she is willing to give.  [/quote]
