[quote=Anonymous]My MB and I have an agreement that if I think I will be too sick to come in the morning, I give her a call the night before or as soon as I realise I probably won't make it. Gives her a bit more time to find back up. Another option for back up care is your nanny's friends - depending on how outgoing she is and how established her nanny circle is, she might know of another nanny who wouldn't mind taking the kids for a day or part of the day while her own kids are in daycare, if her employer doesn't mind, of course. The bright side of this is the kids would probably already know this person from the playground/library/etc and she comes recommended by your nanny who you trust. It's also a good opportunity to meet other parents and possibly offer to host their children in case of emergency as well. Back up care is stressful, good luck for the future, OP.[/quote]
