This needs to be addressed at the time of employment. Now that federal government closure means telework, most people cannot go without childcare. Our contract has a shortened (one hour late start, one hour early departure) on days when the federal government is closed to allow for additional commuting time, or can take PTO if accrued.

Don’t employers have contracts with Nannie’s to avoid these situations!
If the federal government is closed or delayed - that means the current weather conditions are very unsafe. Please be considerate and compassionate.

2. If the commute is 30+ minutes and your school system is closed, nanny has the option to not come in if roads are too bad.
3. If you absolutely must have your nanny work regardless of weather, you need someone with a <5 minute commute or a live-in.
4. Offer to pick up nanny. I lived about 15 minutes from my former nanny family and they knew I'd come in even in snow...but if it was outside of my comfort level of driving they needed to come get me.

You pay her. As someone said above. No counting this day like vacation or sick day. She receives her normal pay week.

You pay.
Most nannies would risk trying to drive in scary weather to not miss out on a days pay.

Obviously. You have to pay her; even she doesn't work that snow day. That doesn't count like a sick day.

Most nannies simply cannot afford to forfit pay due to weather conditions, so you pay her.

If your nanny cannot make it in due to weather, do they take a sick or personal day? Or do you just pay them their regular rate even if they’re not there?
