[quote=Anonymous]My son has RSV.  (He's 13 months and this is his second bout.)  We are in a nanny share.  Before we knew it was RSV, the other family was weary of him being around their child because they didn't want her getting a cold.  i understood, so I took him home.  Now, for the past four days, I have had to pay my nanny even though I cannot use her, plus pay someone else to help out for a few hours during the day, plus sacrifice several hours of work.  On Fridays, we do not do the share and the nanny comes to my house.  What is generally appropriate in this situation?  Should she come despite the fact that he might be contagious or should she stay home?  Also, what do other families who are in nanny shares do when it is the common cold?

One other thing, does anyone else feel like between their child's illnesses, their nanny's illnesses/schedule, and your own schedule that you are constantly having to take time from work?  I keep wondering if I have the wrong nanny and the wrong share arrangements.  [/quote]
