[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Asking your nanny to stay home unpaid means no more nanny.[/quote]

Yes, but asking nanny to stay home paid also means no nanny. But at least you’d save the $$.[/quote]

How do you think your nanny will be able to pay her rent and other expenses, just sitting home unpaid?[/quote]

What?  LOL.  Are you from February?

If you haven't noticed, we're in a pandemic.  Childcare of all kinds, including nanny care, is at a premium.  People are trying to work at home with small kids underfoot, or school aged kids who need DL help.  People are being called back into offices and now need care when they were managing before.  Rates are up and so is demand.

The nanny will be just fine without a family who demanded she quarantine without a positive test and refused to pay her.  [/quote]

PP.  Sorry, person I quoted.  I was responding to the person who said to have her stay home unpaid and "save the $$," not to the person who asked how she would pay her bills if she sat at home unpaid for two weeks.[/quote]

Yes. We are all aware that having nanny stay home without paying her means effectively laying off/furloughing nanny, and potentially not having her return. But ...that wasn’t the question - OP asked if anyone was taking precautions. Anything helpful to add there?[/quote]
