[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nanny here- I bring the kids to my appts. They read a book. It's called life, and yes I have my bosses permission. They told me I don't even have to ask anymore, they'd rather I take the kids than not come to work. I think it's ridiculous taking off time to go to the doctor. What would a sahm do??[/quote]

MB here. This is how we handle it. Of course, if our nanny *wants* to take a day off for her appts, she absolutely can, but if she chooses to take my DD with her, I have no problem with that. She is also welcome to take DD on personal errands if she needs to. If she needs to go to the bank, pick up groceries, whatever, she can do them with DD in tow, if she wishes. Just as I would do if I were a SAHM. She has been with us for 5+ years and it has never been a problem. She goes above and beyond every day, and, as a bonus for me, often asks if she can pick up anything for us when they are out. I treat her as I wish to be treated. In other words, I don't micromanage her day and trust her to do her job.

Of course, OP is in a different situation and I agree with PPs who suggest that she no longer seems to want (or be able to) do the job at hand and it may be time for a change.[/quote][b]

You sound like you might be my MB ? If you are, I think you're a great Mom and an amazing employer. [/quote]
