[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]5 days this year? 
It's only March! 
I'm a nanny and that seems excessive.

And for it to be last min.

Is your nanny a new nanny (doesn't have to be young, but is this a new career for her?),  her immunity may not be a built up as a seasoned nanny. With that the last min of telling you is not right, yes sometimes sicknesses come on last minute but 5 times since January.

How many sick days does she get?

If she is out of sick days, does she need to use her vacation time or go unpaid? [/quote]

She is young-ish, but not a new nanny. She gets 10 paid days per year to use as she wishes for either sick or vacation. After that, she is able to take them unpaid. It is good to know that it seems excessive to someone else as well. [/quote]
In other words, the typical two weeks vacation and zero sick leave.[/quote]

MB here. 2 weeks (10 working days) vacation and three to five sick days is typical, OP. [/quote]

Those 10 days vacation are usually 1 week nanny's choice/1 week parents' choice; 10 days of her own choice + guaranteed hours achieves the same thing. [/quote]
