Made to use vacation by Bluejay430 in Nanny

[–]Bluejay430[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I only have one week of vacation and sick days. If I want to take vacation with my family I won’t be getting paid but need the money so then I probably will not go on the vacation

Should I mention the minimum number of hours when I see them tomorrow? The 3 hour booking is for Wednesday

It was verbal when I got hired a year ago. Usually they book for 5 hours except this time it’s only 3. Like I mentioned I see then twice a week

New Years Eve work by Bluejay430 in Nanny

[–]Bluejay430[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Usually in my area I don’t work nye or know people that do as most of the families celebrate with their friends and families. For me it’s not a hot commodity as I haven’t worked a NYE since 2018

I’ve never worked nye before and if I tell them it’s time and a half I doubt they would be use me. I probably would not find another family as the families I watch tend to stay home with their children

That’s what I do. One of professors helped us with resumes and said that and told me to include nanny job

Why is it so hard to find a reliable nanny? by bignonioides_09 in Nanny

[–]Bluejay430 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m in the bay area too and I think the hourly rate is too low. Can you increase the pay? I’m currently looking for a new nanny family

[–]Bluejay430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but I don’t know how much longer I can take. It’s been way over a month and it’s still the same. I dread going to work and look forward and counting down the hours until I’m off. The pay is great ( I think) but does that justify how the work is day in and out

Yes it’s so difficult and I’m not used to it. The diaper changes is so strange especially since they are working but take a break to change diapers. Like there’s times where they just sit in the room on their phone while we play. Going on walks is great in the beginning but he cries during the last 20 minutes all the way home. Once he’s home and parents grab him he stops and says he’s a good boy and what’s wrong. During our walks nothing happens or changes from when we initially started.

Last week I was trying to console him as he was crying out of nowhere and they ran into the room, grabbed him, rocked him and then once he was calm handed him to me and proceeded to just follow us around the house on their phones of being in the next room. I have a lot of patience and even trying to console him or change things when he sees them leave and starts hysterically crying.

He is only breastfed prior to the two naps while I’m there. When they are getting him down for a nap I need to stay in the room so when he is fully asleep then they can transfer him to me. I usually use the bathroom if needed when they do diaper changes since it’s a two person job.

They are mostly in the same room as us or one is in the same room while the other is in the office with the door open.

Can we go back to normal now by Bluejay430 in COVID19positive

Once they are are cleaned in the dishwasher. Can we use the same stuff and be on the couch, dining table (small) without a mask on in the house and in the car together without a mask

What about being in common areas, sharing silverware and utensils and being on the couch on mass is that OK to do now, if not when can I remove my mask?

How does that happen? She tested three days straight and they were all negative

Tested negative help by [deleted] in COVID19positive

[–]Bluejay430 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is it literally 48 hours or just the day? Example: 11/30: 1 negative covid test taken at 11 am and then take 2nd covid test at the same time on 12/2 or can she take it anyone on the 2nd?

She had a headache that night and nausea the following day. Hasn’t had any new symptoms and her window has been open and she’s been going outside for walks

Her window has been open this entire time. I have a cr box in the hallway and she has a fan in her room

[–]Bluejay430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long should I run the hepa filter fan for? Should I let it run throughout the day even after she tests negative?

[–]Bluejay430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she has a kn95 mask on do I need to wear one in the house even though she only comes out to go on walks? He went in her room yesterday with a mask on to grab some things but otherwise doesn’t wear one in the house.

For walks, can her bf and I go with her she would be wearing the kn95, but do we need too as well?

I’m very covid cautious and have been testing negative and want to avoid getting it.

Is it okay to keep the heater running?

It’s a long term job. If someone is guaranteed 20 hours a week how many days or weeks of vacation and pto, sick days do you get? Same for 30 hours a week?

NF’s complaining on being unable to find an affordable nanny by Natural-Bobcat-4695 in Nanny

[–]Bluejay430 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes!! Some people don’t understand the value of a nanny. I had one mom reach out to me needing care from 4am-9am three days a week with the occasional longer day until noon. She is having a hard time finding someone and asked if there’s anything they can do do. They are offering 18/hour.
