[quote=Anonymous]OP you need to be upfront about your needs and if your own job doesn't allow for flexibility in multiple days off etc then this may not work. The reality is that your nanny has no idea if she will be ready to come back in one month or not. If she is using daycare, she will have days when her kid is sick and you should confirm that she has back up care. I'm assuming that you have a demanding a job and this is one of the reasons why you chose to have a nanny.

Your job as an employer is to be honest about the job you are offering, not change your own work environment so that you can accommodate her new needs. She may need to find a job with someone who has a less demeaning job and can take more days off or be more flexible.

Under no circumstances should you arrange for her to bring her child. Whenever this issue comes up, multiple employers share their bad experiences and only the nannies may arguments that it is positive. No point in going back through this debate as you have already decided against this but be careful about situations where the nanny will want to bring her child occasionally and then it ends up becoming more regular.
