[quote=Anonymous]You are in a really tough situation and I know you care about your nanny and want to do the right thing. The reality is though that there is no job anywhere in which you could pick up and leave for six weeks for the death of a family member and expect to be paid for it without having the vacation time accrued. Can you compromise? Let her take two weeks vacation and then pay her half time or some other percentage for the remainder? Or (assuming she ends up coming back) pay her for the other four weeks but then have her take a day unpaid for the next 20 weeks to even it out? Either way, I sympathize - I know she is important to you and you want to do the kind thing. But in your shoes, no way we'd be able to pay essentially double for childcare for a month plus. It's a tough thing to be asked.[/quote]
