[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Generally when the employer has to give two week's notice to the employee they say "Today is June 1st. Your last day is June 15th. But we're going to just give you a check today for the salary you would earn through June 15th, but you don't actually have to work past today. Right now. Please hand me your keys and if you'd like, say goodbye to the children."  Then you go change  the alarm codes. If she can not produce keys in front of you, change the locks (we have it in our contract that if the nanny can not produce keys when we ask for them she will have to pay the locksmith). [/quote]
It's utterly horrifying that any parent can leave their child with such a person. How do you sleep at night? Or are you on welfare and have no options?[/quote]

I agree w/ the poster you're slamming.  He/she is absolutely right.  Fire the person, hand them a check for all appropriate severance and wish them well.  If they can't hand you the keys change your locks and passcodes or anything else that might have been shared re household security.

I wouldn't want to work somewhere after being fired, and I wouldn't want to have someone around who I had just fired.

OP - pay out what you think is appropriate, what you can afford, and what you will feel good about 6 months from now.

Good luck.[/quote]
