[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we had a live-out nanny, if I got a snow day I would give her one too out of decency. If I was working from home because of snow, I would still cut short her hours so she wouldn't be in stranded on road in bad weather ( good thing was she lived 7 min from our place). Now we have a live-in, I tell her to relax, sleep in and typically call it a day by afternoon. On snow dagys, etiquette  demands that if you are concerned about safety/security of your own family, you must extend same concern to your nanny as well.[/quote]

You sound amazing.  I had one mother text me the evening before the streets were supposed to be covered with ice, telling me that she planned to be on time, so I needed to do whatever I needed to get there.  I was beyond livid, and told her that icy streets could destroy the best travel plans.  I almost told her that ice-skating wasn't part of my job description, but my sister stopped me.  To make matters worse, when I got to work, the street, and steps were unsalted.  when I see posts like yours, i'm encouraged, and believe that there are still caring parents out there.  BE well[/quote]
