[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]What reaction are you looking for?[/b] Are you not planning to come back or are you looking to bring your child with same pay?[/quote] This is a critical question, the answer to which should determine how you approach the conversation. Yes, three months is plenty of time for a family to find a new nanny. However, I'm not sure that asking the family to continue to employ you into your ninth month is reasonable. A lot depends on the age and needs of the kid(s) for whom you nanny. I have twins - when they were toddlers I wouldn't have felt comfortable having a very pregnant nanny be responsible for chasing, lifting, carrying, catching, etc... When they were tiny, or now that they are older, I would feel (potentially) more comfortable but I would prioritize the safety and needs of my children above all else. I would, however, absolutely plan to work with a valued nanny so that she could work as long as possible and then return to her job. I'd get a temporary nanny and we'd figure it all out - but it would take a really strong relationship between nanny and employer to want to work through that. Congrats on your baby![/quote]
