You do not have to like your boss. You do not have to like your employee. Everyone needs to be a grown-up and understand why this position exists (childcare) and what is most important (childcare).

seriously, you must be living under a rock if you never heard of one of those reports about a disgruntled nanny who snapped and drowned the kids. A nanny working for a family in their home isn't a big corporation with lots of departments and rules so yes both parties must like the situation to work together long term.

And that in your mind in the rule rather than the rare exception?! If that were the case, there would be a majority of drowned charges.

The nanny only needs the job to last until December. And if most disgruntled nannies drowned their charges there would be rivers of kids floating face down.

Make a point to treat every day with the child you care for as if it's your last. This way if you're let go you'll have those nice memories of a job well done. If you have a mental end in sight, no matter how the MB is, you can get through it. Nod and smile.

You sound like a doormat.

You sound like an idiot. OP only has five months to go and she knows it. OP has the upper hand here. No one wants to start looking for another job and accepting another job for only four of five months.

You're a nasty person.

And you're still an idiot. (NP here, btw).
