[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]30 days is generous.  2.5 weeks is ahead of average/standard contractual notice.  I don't think the other family is being "extremely unfair" and I don't think it's your job to "help them see the light".  The specifics of their financial circumstances are none of your business.

I don't think the other family is in the wrong but I do think you are to be commended OP.  [/quote]
How long do you think it takes most parents to find a new nanny?

These things work both ways.[/quote]

An employer giving an employee notice is not required to alter the notice period according to how long it might or might not take that person to find another position.  This is a job, not a fantasy world.  Both employers in OP's scenario are being fair.  One is being more generous than the other.  The nanny is lucky.[/quote]
[b]What's "fair" is what was in the agreemen[/b]t, which may have been lacking.

You sound like the wicked witch.[/quote]

Sure.  But we've heard nothing about a contractual violation, just judgement.  You can call me whatever you want but I have a contract that spells out the terms of my position and I consider myself legally bound by it.  Anything either party does beyond the contract is gravy, not required.  And also not "lacking".[/quote]
