[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here- we live in a low COL area and we pay our nannny very well. I know in my heart we have been good to her. The things we are asking her to do are things she has been responsible for all along, she has simply decided she can no longer do them.

I have trusted her completely with my kids. I have no nanny cams or find a friend tracker on her phone. She puts my 3 year old in her car and off they go to wherever she wants- target, her house, museum, visiting her friends, etc. I was only asking for a continuation of this work with more hours through the month of August.

OP, living in a low COLA area has nothing to do with it.  You may thing your pay is fair but it may not be a living wage for her.  Your comments about no nanny cam and her doing what ever she wants sound like neglectful parenting as it is your job to know where you child is.

You never answered the topics about the extra hours the next few weeks - are you giving her a flat salary or paying her extra, especially if she's doing 24/7 for two days while you are in the hospital.  What isn't she doing and why haven't you asked her to do them?  It sounds like there is a lot more to this story.  Why did you wait so long to have a discussion.  Maybe during the discussion she didn't feel comfortable asking for more money or discuss the situation as you put her on the spot.  When she realized she'd be working double the hours through August with no extra pay, she has a right to be upset.

Why do you need double hours through August?  Maybe for a week or two but after that, you need to learn to take care of three kids.

P.S. you don't put a tracker on her phone.  You give her a phone and put a tracker on your phone.  You should have camera's in your house.  They are very helpful for safety.[/quote]
