[quote=Anonymous]So sorry! This sounds unbelievably stressful. Yes, you need another nanny immediately. Safety and reliability are critical for a nanny - you don't have either with this one and she's already been flaky. You don't owe her anything at this stage. It's miserable now but be thankful you can be out of it and have it behind you quickly - better she show her true colors before anyone gets too invested in her. Get emergency help if you can (there are agencies out there - it's expensive but hopefully it will be short term). Send a message to your neighborhood listserv asking if anyone has a nanny who can take an additional child for a couple of days, or if there's someone who can provide care for the short term (you never know - this is how I found my nanny and there are lots of grandmothers who might be happy to help), etc... Good luck! I'm sorry!![/quote]
