We too are thinking of firing our nanny. She has been with us for 3 years, but the past two have gotten progressively worse and we are really unhappy. The 6.58%- this means that we must pay this while the nanny collects benefits? Or that our insurance for the next nanny goes up while the original nanny is collecting?

It's deplorable that anyone would call such a person a caregiver, much less a "nanny".
Your friend hired a sitter, literally.
Not a nanny.
