[quote=Anonymous]That is a lot of work to miss in the first 3 weeks, but if she's as amazing as you say I can't imagine why you wouldn't give it some more time before firing her. Nannies are human and they get sick. Right now everyone I know is sick and sickness spreads fast. If she volunteered to come in with strep throat she is clearly committed to your family and feels awful about taking time off already. This sounds exactly like what happened to me in my current position when I started two years ago. I missed 3 days in 4 weeks and thought for sure I'd get fired. Lucky for both of us, my boss was very understanding and decided to give me the benefit of the doubt. Two years later, I've only missed 2 other days from sickness and both were during this bad cold season. Give her another month OP, if she turns out to be flakey you can replace her then. If your nanny is as good as you say, you'd be crazy to fire her already. Amazing nannies are hard to come by.[/quote]
