What would you do. Our nanny has taken care of our 2 dcs since they were a few months old (4 years). We have a close relationship and know her 2 kids pretty well. We have always paid her per hour, with an agreement that she takes time off as needed (and we find coverage at our expense) but we do not pay her for sick days or days that she takes off. She called tonight, very upset, because her 16 year old daughter was molested and I spoke with her and her daughter about what happened (she wanted to talk to me). Her daughter feels guilty about several different things and I was reassuring her that she didn't do anything wrong. She seemed very stressed about her mother losing a days pay in order to deal with this incident with her next week. Would you offer to pay for her salary for the day - we will have to also pay someone else for the day. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]
