[b]Won't it be awkward to keep working for them for a month when I've told them the job doesn't suit me?

There is the possibility that the work environment will be awkward, but if everyone remain professional it doesn't need to be. Are your employers rational, mature individuals who don't ten to fly off the handle when presented with unpleasant news? If so it should be ok.

If you'd like to decrease the likelihood of things being awkward you can do your part in remaining professional. Ask them what you can do to help them during the transition to a new nanny. You could offer to speak with potential nannies about what you liked about the job...even it that means it's only things such as your were always paid on time or your employers didn't micromanage you. The potential nannies don't need to know about your frustration with the sleep issue...that might not bother everyone. If asked by potential nannies why you are leaving or what you didn't like about the job focus on your need for a consistent schedule due to other commitments in your life. You could also let your employers know that you are willing to have the new shadow you for a day if they are open to that.

Things will be a lot less awkward if you go out of your way to make the transition a smooth one. Good luck. [/quote]
