I would advise any nanny who is being asked to work for a family that are not key workers to explain to their employer they have an obligation to follow all the rules on social distancing otherwise they are in breach of their health and safety obligations to employees. So unless your employing family keep themselves and their children 2 metres away from you at all times then it is not a safe workplace and they cannot and should not ask you to be there. Nannies are employees with all the same rights as other employees. If they can't make it safe they should still pay you and apply for furlough money if needed. Ring ACAS or join a trade union for more advice. We do a valuable job and we all deserve to be treated with dignity.
