[quote=Anonymous]As both a nanny and a parent, I think it's only the right thing to do to respectfully tell a nanny as soon as you know that your child is ill and could be contagious. Then I would leave it up to the nanny's discretion as to whether she wanted to come in or not. I know there are some families who do not agree w/me on this and believe that it all comes w/the territory. They say that school teachers are exposed to germs all the time and so forth, but I say if a parent KNOWS that a child is ill and is contagious, it is just morally wrong to expose another person to him or her for any reason. And if I did expose my sick child to my nanny, then it would only backfire later on because I would end up missing work in a week or so later while my nanny was home sick nursing what my child gave her.[/quote]
