[quote=Anonymous]OP here -- thanks for the replies everyone. Clearly there are a lot of opinions out there. My problem is that when I did the contract, I wasn't really thinking that 2 weeks of vacation for the nanny plus 2 weeks of vacation for me plus 5 sick days equals five weeks out of work. I don't have that much time off, so I have to pay for back-up childcare and I didn't really budget for that either. If I had to do it all over again, I would have one of nanny's weeks of vacation be the same week we take vacation. That would give me some breathing room and then I probably wouldn't care so much about whether the sick days get used. But I very strongly disagree with the thought that sick days are to be used, regardless of whether you are sick or not. That never even crossed my mind when I wrote the contract. I assumed everyone felt the same way I did (i.e. "I really hope I don't have to use any sick leave this year")[/quote]
