We have 3 children.
The Nanny (with us 6 months) has just told me she is pregnant. She looks after the children in our own home
We pay her tax and prsi (all above board)and she is full-time.
Am I obliged to keep her job open for her once she has the baby? i.e can she request to come back after her 6 months maternity leave (which I can't afford to top up).
I will need to find a replacement while she is off ?
Also , can I encourage her to leave at around 6 weeks before the baby is due ? I have some concerns about her ability to look after my children.
I'm a mother myself and want to do the right thing by her , but I also need to put my own children first.
Thanks
