[quote=Anonymous]It is common for families to get so upset their nanny is leaving that they decide to get even with a bad reference. Working two years for a family is a reference in itself, so start with that as you start your search. You may want to be careful how you reference children regardless if it has grounds. Calling children spoiled brats and ending a post with profanity will not help your case. The best you could do is ask your previous employer to just verify your time with them and that is it when called for a reference, I believe by law that is all they have a right too, otherwise they could be liable for slander. When you meet with possible employers try and stay positive about your experience and how you can understand how they might feel. To do this you really need to adjust your own inside feelings and behavior because any negatives will show even if you do not express it. Good luck[/quote]
