[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any parents out there reading this.

Most nannies (myself included)  will take care of sick children.

Kids get fevers.
Kids vomit.
Kids get diarrhea.

Do parents want to stay home and care for their child?...or course they do. 
  But if they take a day off for every time their child gets a bug then their job performance suffers and they might put their job in jeopardy.  Parents work to provide for their kids.

No one has claimed nannies don't care for sick kids you nit. The problem lies in the fact that many parents are stingy with sick days, and some don't offer them at all, yet expect nanny to care for their kid and take an unpaid day when she catches it. I care for kids with common colds, because if/when I catch it, I can easily work through it. I will also care for other illnesses with the understanding that if I catch it I will be taking a paid sick day to get better. To expect anything less is what is unreasonable, which is the OPs situation. [/quote]
