Subject: What length of service commitment is required for nannies?
^ she’s literally just asking a question. Why are assuming asking what is standard, is the same as hiring a nanny/lying and saying it’s indefinite/firing at 2-6 months?

You are a POS! Only a despicable person would hire a nanny for six months and not tell her. You suck!

Yes, of course you must be absolutely clear and upfront about how long your position will last. Someone may be interested in a two to four month job but an agency, known for placement of temporary nannies will be your best bet.

When I hired my nanny I was clear this was “at will” employment. I wasn’t going to sign a contract for a year plus, with someone I had just done a two week trial!
Ethically, I don’t think you should mislead a person that this will be a long term position when it won’t (I.e., don’t lie!).

This would typically be considered a short term nanny. Most professional nannies are looking for long term. My contract is minimum two years.

Just be clear in the advertisement, and depending on the time of year, possibly consider going through an agency.

The agency I worked with often had placements around that length and specified as such. It’s often not that hard to find nannies looking for shorter term engagements. Ethically I would not pretend it was a long-term position.
