[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is two weeks of vacation/sick paid time off (one of nanny's choosing, one of employer's) pretty standard in DC (we live in NW DC)?

We are hiring a nanny for the first time and were thinking of offering:

(1) December 24th - January 1st (in 2021, this would be 6 days)
(2)[b] 5 days of the nanny's choosing (PTO, includes sick time)[/b]
(3) 5 days of our choosing, likely to fall in July / August -- we will give the nanny two months' notice
(4) 10 federal holidays (MLK, President's Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Columbus / Indigenous People's Day, Thanksgiving, day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, New Year's Day)

Additional sick time for COVID, as needed.

Is this more or less than what is usually offered?[/quote]

This seems low if it includes her sick time.  We do ten days PTO of her choosing plus 5 sick days.  She will get some extra time off if we travel as well but I don't include that in her package.

We spell out the paid holidays- not 100% aligned with federal holidays since we are not feds but comes to about same number of days (eg we don't give Veterans Day since we have to work but give day after Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve)[/quote]
