[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We haven't had the best luck in the nanny department. The current one seems to miss work about 2-3 days a month, not counting planned days like vacation and holidays. We've paid her regardless, but it's been disruptive to our own jobs. DH's parents are retired and local and have helped some, but I think that option is wearing thin. There are four children, ranging from 4 months to 6 years, so they are a handful especially this summer when school is not in session. I do handle the baby's feedings since I WFH. I guess we either need to replace the nanny or arrange for paid back-up care (which I understand would be pricey). TIA for any suggestions. [/quote] Four kids! No wonder she calls in sick. You need two nannies.[/quote] No. They need one competent nanny who *likes* big families. I nannied for 7 quite happily and definitely did not need or want another nanny there and throwing off the routine.[/quote]
