[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not an MB, but I think you're only going to get biased responses from them. As a nanny, I don't think you did anything wrong. They knew you were looking for a new position, you didn't go into it looking for a position that starts early, and it'd be the height of stupidity to turn down a job offer at above market rates for the convenience of a family that is cutting you loose anyway. Not everything worked out according to her little time table. She will live. [/quote]

I think this is a tough situation on both sides and everyone is wrong, but sometimes these things are what they are and OP has to do what is best for her.  But in response to the PP, if the nanny had said she was leaving in the fall and the parents happened to find the perfect replacement but she needed to start a few months early, the nannies on this board would be up in arms against the MB if she let the nanny go early.  These things go both ways.[/quote]

+1.  I'm an MB and if I'm being totally honest I think if I was in that situation I would be annoyed/frustrated at the situation but if the nanny explained to me that she had tried finding a job to start later but couldn't I would understand that she had to do what's best for herself.  I would most definitely NOT yell at the nanny which is always inappropriate.  At the end of the day we all have to do what's best for ourselves/family.[/quote]
