[quote=Anonymous]I'm a nanny and have been for several years and snow days was my biggest peeve with my employers until I realized no amount of money offered would make me put my life at risk. First you brave the snow to get there and the employers are still in their pajamas.The kids are usually not changed and the house is messy with toys and stuff everywhere. The employers turn around and disappears upstairs saying they have calls to make. They come down to eat and take coffee breaks and lunch, but won't relieve you and take their kids out to play in the snow during their breaks so you can have at least one quiet moment. So my policy is I will come to work on a snow day if my employers also go in. If you stay home so do I but please don't pay me..Nannies read your employer some will be great but those who aren't tell them keep the days PAY and stay safe..The pay makes them feel entitled like they own you..Leave it for them and let them do your work for that day..Trust me they don't like it. The weekend is more than they want to care for their r kids..[/quote]
