[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work for a wealthy family and I am 'foreign'but a legal US citizen. I get two weeks paid vacation, I take another 1-2 weeks unpaid, and often get an extra 1-2 weeks off when the family travels. I get to choose my vacation weeks, if possible I try to plan it when the parents travel but they're last minute people so sometimes they have to plan around my vacations. They always hire temps. Last year I ended up with 6 weeks vacation. I've been with the family 6 years and while they don't love it when I go away, they understand that I'm a travel is important. You can't just live your life with one week vacation and go to the outer banks and feel like you're really living, I travel internationally and feel like when I come back I have so much more to offer. That's fine if you think nannies should only have one week of vacation, but for me thankfully I have always found families who will are willing to accommodate my wishes. [/quote]

The weeks when they travel don't count for this discussion. That's "guaranteed hours," and is in a different category.

Do you take all 2-4 weeks of your paid and unpaid vacation at the same time?
