[quote=Anonymous]no, nanny is not supposed to care of your sick child. Just like daycare center would call you if your child runs ever, nanny would call you if illness detected during her shift, and you would have to come home and take over. This is because, number one, if nanny gets sick from your child, she may not be able work for a greater number of days, and may lose a week or 2 in her pay, number 2, the babies who run fevers are pretty miserable and need parent, especially if it is ear infection, and third, teething is almost never a cause for a fever that lasts more than a day. It is just parents' excuse. would not work in any daycare center, nope.And when they finally take baby to the pediatrician, it is usually viral and by that time nanny gets it, her family gets it and she would miss even more days. The good news, babies do not get sick so often in nanny situation. I am a nanny and we had slight colds 3 times during past year, and only one time accompanied by fever that last a day only, so I had the baby with er mom half day and the next day only, after that no fever but slight sniffles which was fine by me.[/quote]
