[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the replies. I talked to her this morning and tried to come to a compromise. I offer to another eek unpaid and I will take my own vacation from work to. Cover. For her. But, I dont even have that much vacation and it is unreasonable to ask for that much time off with no notice. At first, she said she is still going and we can take the time while she is gone to find someone else. And, when I said if that is what you really want to do then that is your choice. And, I told her that I thought I was being more than reasonable. And, oh by the way good luck finding another job because no one else would give her that much time off either.

And, she thought about it and said that she was sorry. And, she does want this job.

I am still calling mommy relief. Thanks for recommendation. I need to find out there fees. I am scared she may not come back.[/quote]

You are taking 2 weeks of for Xmas and New Years week, then another week off in January to "cover for" your young, vacationing nanny?
Please do not tell your employer this, this sounds pathetic.

Just say No. She put the ticket on Hold because she knows its bull$hit and now she thinks she will get away with it. You work for her. Sucker!

Where's your husband in all of this?  Either of us would have laughed her out of the house this morning if the above conversation truly happened.  "Take the time to find someone else."  Yeah, like that is what you planned to do over the holidays.

She sounds like a selfish, immature drama queen and these episodes will not end. The trust has been broken. [/quote]
