[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would you do? Our nanny of one year asked if she could take a month off to go home. I agreed although only two of the weeks will be paid. Just yesterday she informed me that she is taking 5 1/2 weeks off and already bought her plane ticket. I"m dumfounded as to why she would not ask before increasing the amount of time she is taking off. She's been good with the kids and flexible with our schedule but I feel like this is a slap in the face. My husband and I both work full time and feel her taking off so much time is simply unreasonable. Would you start looking for someone else?[/quote] Yes. Your nanny is being unreasonable expecting she can just take 5 1/2 weeks off because she feels like it. Tell her she is welcomed to take as much unpaid time off as she likes, but you won't guarantee her job will be available when she feels like returning. Look for someone in the interim and fire the first for cause.[/quote]
