[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. The nanny did turn us down. For those who are marking remarks, she does already have her certifications, flu, and tdap shot. She said the whole test would run her around $500 if she needed the titer and possible vaccines. We are going to ask our pediatrican what we can get away with. For those saying we can’t afford a nanny, we live in Arlington and plan to pay $16 for one infant. I feel like that’s a good wage.

I bet your pediatrician is going to tell you that if your nanny has proof of flu and TDap vaccinations, and has received her normal childhood vaccines, you're fine.  Asking for proof of those vaccines or demanding titers is NOT the norm, at least not in this area, so you're really an outlier here.

And I certainly wouldn't pay $500 in order to get that job.  $16 is okay, but not great, and I bet she can find something for the same or a better wage.  Plus, your demands are a sign that you are probably going to be difficult to work with, and she might just want to avoid that hassle.  [/quote]
