[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a question for bosses.  You are concerned that nannies aren’t taking public transportation and practicing social distancing.
I’m a nanny and have been doing this for the last week.   My bosses are not doing this in any way.  They will start working from
home next week, but have zero plans of changing day to day activities.  They will still travel, go out for dinners, gym, etc...

They also don’t plan to change things for the kids.  Two of the kids (they have 4) are teens and still going to the mall, movies, and restaurants.
They are all going out of town this weekend.

I’m a nervous wreck.  I have some undelying health conditions that are under control, but could put me at greater risk.  My parents (mid 60’s)
are staying with me for a while and I’m worried for them as well.

What is a reasonable expectation here?  I want to be respectful of their work commitments  and fulfill my obligations, but am very uneasy about them not taking this seriously and not  changing anything with their routines.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[/quote] I know this is intimidating but you need to sit down with your employers as soon as possible and respectfully tell them your concerns. Start out by telling them you support them in this difficult situation but also try and check out how they support you. For example-"I am prepared to work during the virus situation but what is your plan? [/quote]
