[quote=Anonymous]We've had this live in nanny for 9months now. When we interviewed we clarified the details about the job description including changing the kids' sheets dusting and vacuuming their room once a week, helping them to sort their toys when putting them away, and the most critical part of it all: being upstairs at 7am every morning since the kids wake up around 7:20-7:30. She was supposed to unload the DW and prepare bfast for the kids during this time. Due to an illness I cannot tend to them at wake up so this morning routine was crucial. Anyway, every morning she waited until I brought the kids downstairs to come up and start the day. Never once unloaded the DW, never asked the kids to sort toys and rarely changed their sheets or cleaned their room. They have asthma and this was part of their treatment so I ended up having to do it when I noticed she hasn't done it. We talked a few times but she ignored it. In every other aspect she was amazing. The kids love her she's responsible and so loving! So we put up with the down sides. She used her 2week vacation within 3 months and mentioned she wanted to spend new years eve in NYC asking if we needed her help on the week between Xmas and new year. I said we needed it but she'd have the holiday off so some of it would be unpaid. Well, 8 weeks ago she came to me and asked for 12 weeks off between October and end of December to visit her family in CA. I was in shock! Dh and I talked and we decided to let her go. We gave her 8 weeks notice and suddenly she started doing EVERYTHING! I mean EVERYTHING. What in the world is going on in her head? I got one call for a reference - apparently she's taking a new job in November and will spend October in CA - but nothing else. I wonder why suddenly she's doing what she was supposed to be doing all along :/[/quote]
