[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The first time it happened, you should have spoken up and told them to pay you or you were walking. Nobody takes advantage of you unless you let them![/quote] People say stuff like this without realizing the position it puts the nanny in. If you walk off every job the second there's a disagreement, it will add up to a lot of unexplained gaps in your resume. And few nannies can afford to go without pay for the several weeks it may take to find a new family, plus job hunting under pressure makes you more likely to take a less-than-perfect job and end up in the same place. Much better to negotiate every detail clearly and confidently up front than to rely on "speaking up" several months in.[/quote]
