[quote=Anonymous]OP, it is common custom for nannies to be paid for federal holidays and snow days if the government is closed. If you know that the snow days are going to be an issue then the best thing to do is find a nanny who lives close to your home or look for someone to live-in. Our nanny has had to trek in on several severe snow days. We wish we could let her take a day off but we both work with high need populations where our presence on the job is even more important during inclement weather. The best arrangement we have found is to ask the nanny to stay overnight if a storm is forecasted and then pay her overtime for all hours after the normal work day ends. It's expensive. We have to give up some things in exchange. But it's the most ethical and practical way I have found to meet everyone's needs.[/quote]
