If your employer wants you to use your car to transport their children then they should be paying for the rider, not you.

Same for au pair employers?


Yep.
I think everyone should have an umbrella policy, for sure, but obviously those who are in a respondeat superior situation (au pair, nanny, etc) really NEED it. And it's usually pretty cheap. We pay less than $300 a year for 2.5 million in coverage on top of our homeowners and auto.

How do families deal with car insurance for nannies who occasionally drive kids to the park or library (no other errands or driving is ever needed) in the nanny's own car?
