[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think COVID testing should only be required if either party attends a “risky” activity. For example, traveling by train, plane or using other public transportation, staying at a hotel, attending a family function, etc. If you require frequent testing, then it would only be fair if all parties were tested on the same day; your expectations of the nanny should go for you (the employer) as well. But I would absolutely ask the nanny to provide a negative COVID test prior to her start date. I don’t think mask inside the home is necessary, especially if you all have an open line of communication. Perhaps do daily temp checks and be clear what symptoms are ground for staying home and then you can request a covid test to return. All parties should still be following the guidelines set out by the CDC. If you could find someone that is already vaccinated that may ease your mind a bit. In my arrangement (share) all the adults are now vaccinated which is great and while we still use our best judgement and follow all the CDC guidelines, we have begun to relax a little. [/quote] False sense of security even if you are vaccinated you can still catch Covid [/quote] It’s a 90 to 95% certainty the vaccinated can’t catch covid. Same as every other vaccine like tDAP and measles. Nothing “false” about it. Insist the nanny is fully vaccinated for covid. [/quote]
