[quote=Anonymous]Here's what I've done in the past (though I think nannies have more leverage now and some might want more): If I tell her not to come in (ie we are out of town or I'm off work), I still pay her for the day. It's only fair... she's relying on that money and it's not her fault we aren't there. If you want, maybe she could even come in that day and organize the playroom or something. When I had a relatively loose "nanny" arrangement with a college student, the days she requested off were unpaid. But I let her make it up by adding hours to other days / babysitting for a date night. I did not pay her for any holidays (but I gifted her cash for xmas / bday). When I had a more professional nanny, her contract stated when she got PTO, paid sick leave and when it would be unpaid. So if you want a more professional nanny situation, create a contract. If its a looser babysitter situation, you probably don't need to cover days that she cancels on you.[/quote]
