[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your NF or your contract doesn't make sense. 
The families always take 1-5 weeks+ of vacation and pay you your minimum guaranteed. And then you choose your 1 or whatever weeks on top of that. Usually for something like Xmas week, the nanny holds out[/quote]

1st, her contract seems pretty standard and not at all confusing
2nd, there is no "always" in this industry

If an employee is given PTO as a benefit, with no caveat, they are under no obligation to "hold out" until a time that is convenient for their employer. [/quote]

I agree, there should be no confusion. So why is Miss Experienced Nanny so confused?

No nanny burns her personal vacation week on Christmas because she knows 9/10 times the family will take off that same week and it will be just another bonus paid week off.  Just like all the other weeks the family takes off.

Miss Experienced Nanny should always ask when the family is planning to do Christmas, spring break, summer, etc. and then use her own week separately. [/quote]

What university did you attend that conferred the degree of Masters In Nannying upon you? Or do you always just feel entitled to tell other people what they should do?[/quote]
