[quote=Anonymous]MB here - it's far better to have a specified term than an open ended clause, unfortunately. But if the agreement specifies three weeks for parental notice to nanny then it seems perfectly reasonable for the nanny to give the same. I actually think 3 weeks is a generous/professional amount of notice anyway. It's long enough to give them real time and options (if only to line up temporary agency coverage) but not so awfully long as to put the nanny out of consideration for her next job (or put undue hardship on the next employer). If you mean that you've given notice now, for October departure, and the parents say that's not enough then that's completely ridiculous. To ask anyone to give 3 months notice, in any profession, is absurd. But I'm not sure that's what your post meant - a little confusing.[/quote]
