[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So you hired a non-native English speaker and didn't realize that she'd probably need to take at least 1 long trip each year? Then your kids get her sick and you dock her pay?

Are you under some impression that every non-native speaker travels abroad yearly?[/quote]

LOL.

I also agree with PP that it doesn't matter where she got the virus from, you don't want to get into a debate over this every time she gets sick!  I think your mistake was in being over-generous by allowing her to use ALL of her PTO towards a vacation before the year was up, i.e., before it was accrued and not leave any for actual sicknesses.  And I also think it's really sh*tty of the nanny to complain that you don't pay her enough.  I would NOT keep on a nanny who felt that way; an employee who feels they are underpaid will act out and you probably won't even know about it.  It also is very unprofessional behavior and she is probably unprofessional in other ways, too.
