[quote=Anonymous]How much leave does she have? You say 4 days in 2 months, so that would be 24 days in a year? Our nanny actually had 20 days of sick leave + vacation a year, so this rate of accrual wouldn't be that alarming (especially as sick leave tends to clump in winter for many people). If you otherwise like your nanny, I would wait and allow her a sample size of more than 2 months... I would not consider it a red flag at all that she didn't disclose a chronic health condition during the interview. Anyone on this board would advise her not to. Did you talk to her references? Did this come up? If not, I would wonder what was up and/or if this was a new condition, in which case it might settle down. Did she disclose what the condition is? If so, do some research. If not, maybe try to gently pry to get a fuller picture of whether it's long-term compatible with your needs.[/quote]
