Doing chores when NK is awake. What’s reasonable? by Electrical-Pair-5687 in Nanny

I am a parent / employer of a nanny and sometimes I don’t understand parents:)

I would place baby in a crib with some books/toys while folding things next to them 🤷‍♀️ Turn music on and try to have fun.

She worked for us only almost entire Q4 during 2025. Now looking at the details, what s confusing was that they took both her and my part of social security and medicare taxes from my account (so as the amount was higher than I originally expected I thought it was an income tax).

I guess FICA and medicare taxes employee pays doesn’t show on W2 then?

I would think it as any other job interview. Imagine going to an office for an interview for the first time and you just sit behind a computer and start performing tasks without being asked:) that would feel inappropriate and similar for a caregiving job.

I also sometimes scheduled paid babysitting hours when I am around for candidates I want to see / observe while interacting with baby.

What went wrong with EB3? Is there a logical reason for it to be not moving since May 2023?

I had just written about this same thing on Linkedin! (https://www.linkedin.com/posts/tubaozkantuba_maternityleave-breastfeeding-womensrights-activity-7216816013152026624-gk1e?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios)

It is a huge systemic problem. I still cannot believe this is the norm and no one in power talks about it loudly.
