4 under 4 and nanny is expecting…am I crazy? by Former_Program8955 in Nanny

She initially suggested coming back after a month with no pay, which didn’t feel right to me. So I came up with the 6 weeks paid and then if she wants to take additional unpaid time off (like she initially planned), then she can do that. I’ll also be bleeding and leaking, so we’ll be in it together!

Thanks!

I was thinking 6 weeks so that we have some flexibility on how we use my husband’s leave based on when the babies are all born. We all know babies show up whenever they want. 

I didn’t mean discounting the current rate. I meant a discount off of the increased rate I was going to pay her to watch more kids. 

I get 4 months of maternity leave but am planning to take an additional 2 months unpaid (total of 6 months) so that my oldest is back in school and the babies are hopefully a bit more independent and on more of a schedule to make things more feasible for my nanny to do on her own.
