[quote=Anonymous]OP here again: Some of you have said well you should have negotiated this up front and said you wanted sick days. I didn't think to ask when I started this position 2 1/2 years ago. When they have gotten sick I have gone to work and sometimes gotten sick myself. I will go to work vomiting because they still really need me to come in. The mom told me recently that if I get sick from them she still has to pay the drop in daycare or someone else to take care of them so she won't pay me on top of that because she doesn't feel it is fair to have to pay whoever is taking care of them and myself. So far the only other vomiting and diarrhea incidents have been very few and fortunately were mostly over the weekend so I didn't have to deal with to much puke or poop. I understand that they cannot miss work all the time and don't mind watching them when they are sick I just want to be paid for if I have to miss because I get sick from the children. Now that I know their policy I will be looking for a new family to work for. I adore their children so it's really unfortunate that it has come to this. [/quote]
