[quote=Anonymous]Our nanny of about 2 years has had a death in her immediate family. We have called to give her our condolences and told her not to worry about coming to work this week (obviously). I am a little uncertain how to proceed from here. We would like to attend the funeral - I would assume she would tell us the details, but should we keep calling her for this info? And what do we do about setting a schedule in the future? I don't know how long to wait before even bringing it up or how to handle time off. She has another week paid vacation this year which could cover this week, and then we'd be happy to cover a second week off given the circumstances, but any sense of what is customary here? More than the money, we are scrambling for care as I have zero vacation time left after maternity leave for no. 2 Given that we have a 2 year old and 6 mo baby, it is too challenging for your average babysitter, which has meant backup care is difficult.[/quote]
