[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Childcare is considered essential. So you can go to your essential job - providing childcare - in Maryland.

If you are worried your NF is not social distancing, you could quit, but I would not expect to receive unemployment.

What exactly is your NF doing?[/quote]

Childcare is the responsibility of the parent and no one else.  O predict that coronaviruus will have nannies finding new non childcare jobs as they have now finally found out that their familiesdo do not give a damn about them.  For instance, the nanny whose family refuses to pay her for time already worked.  Both parents at home but still need a nanny![/quote]

There was a reason childcare is considered an essential function.  Both parents at home still need to work.  And not all homes have two parents.[/quote]

Tough.  No one should be expected to take care of their children during s pandemic but the actual parents!  [/quote]m

Some of us are volunteering.  I have an interview tomorrow with a family who needs 24/7.  One parent is already out-of-state, and the other will be out-of-state as soon as the nanny arrives.

There are other parents who are wfh or woh and still need care.  The only parents who don’t NEED care right now are furloughed, sah or laid off AND not looking for work; healthy enough to care for their children; AND capable of teaching whatever level the children need.  There are many, many parents that fit 2/3 of the above, but the third category (whichever one it may be) means that they do need help, even for a few hours.

Now, I heartily agree that nannies with dependents and/or compromised health should not be asked to work.  There are nannies who are available now to fill in.
