[quote=Anonymous]16:23 here - seeing your update, I would add that I could happily recommend our nanny for some jobs, and not for others. She couldn't cope w/ the driving needs we had, the energy level of older kids, and a few other things. But for infant care I could whole-heartedly recommend her. So I was careful about how I provided references, and what I helped her pursue. So maybe your nanny will be better for another family, and then you can provide a great reference in those circumstances. BY the way, I also think it's fine to take the "rip off the bandaid" approach and just give a big severance check, a quick goodbye w/ the kids (or not) and figure out the emotional stuff separately if that's what's best for your family. You can manage the messaging and emotions with your kids if you need to, and perhaps you can re-establish some contact with the nanny for their sake after some time has gone by. [/quote]
