[quote=Anonymous]I have been working for this family for almost 4months. And I don't think they have any idea that I'm unhappy and try to avoid watching there kids outside my work hours. They are nice people but I don't think they really did there research on having a nanny and everything it really means. Like Sick days, Paid time off, Guaranteed hours, Sick days, acting working together with someone in regards to their baby and etc. Also I hate that I work part time not because of the money but I think it's confusing for the baby. I honestly will never do a schedule like this again with a baby this young and EBF. One day she is a EBF baby with her mom and constantly on her hip and when I come I have to do things different and mom just seems unwilling to work with me. When I come back from my three day weekend the baby has forgotten everything I tried to teach her before I left why because they won't practice with her. Her parents will leave there dirty breakfast dishes for me to put away and leave me loads of laundry to fold. When mom jobs gets called off work she still has me come in but does not use me to do my job which is watch the baby but more like her personal assistant/housekeeper. She calls this making up the hours. They keep track of the hours they don't use and force me to make them up watching there children for free on weekends. To me this is a slap in the face. Then they toss my baskets of laundry to fold also and leave there dirty dishes. I never have had this issue with any of my other familes I babysit for. I work 7 days a week all part time to make ends meet I never get a break. When I still agree to watch there children why must they still try to squeeze more out of me and for FREE. They are not rude to me other then these things they invite me for dinner, invited me to the baby's christening, got me birthday presents. I believe they are honestly kind hearted people. Its not like they don't have the money to pay me for the hours they ask me to set aside for them each week. I've watched them blow money on new tvs, furniture sets and a hot tub. Am I wrong for starting to dislike this family.[/quote]
