[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, you can find a temporary nanny, you have enough notice. I would start looking now and possibly have the temp nanny babysit for you a few time between now and then. Like any other job, if you use all your PTO, any other days off, are just unpaid- it doesn’t mean “you can’t take off because you used all your leave.” It’s good for families to have backup care for this reason especially.[/quote]

Most jobs do not allow you to simply take unpaid leave whenever you wish. (I would quickly be out of a job if I tried that!) Leave--paid or unpaid--must be approved. In this case, OP is not approving it, as is her right. (The nanny is, of course, free to seek another job with more flexible leave time.)[/quote]

+1000. I’ve never had anyone even request leave without pay at work. I think it’s pretty widely accepted that you get the amount of leave you get barring an emergency situation or maternity leave etc. Can someone explain why nannies are so casual about this ( including ours) ?? [/quote]
Yes. You're apparently paying only average. Pay her more than your competition and perhaps she'll reconsider. Think about it.[/quote]
