[quote=Anonymous]I always see nannies saying MB's should have it, and I think it's a great idea but not sure how it works in practice. We do have a backup care option through work but they require at least 24 hrs. notice which isn't ever really practical if our nanny is sick. This morning she texted that she has a stomach bug and DH is traveling so I was scrambling to cancel everything on my calendar. I only get paid if I go to work so in addition to the disruption, it also means a loss of income. Of course I'm not upset with her in any way, no one can help getting sick, and I would never ask her to work if not feeling well, but just wondering if there's something we could do last minute to cover hours? We do have a few occasional babysitters but they work or go to school during the week so they can't come on a moment's notice. We don't have local family or friends so any ideas?[/quote]
