[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MB here. I think a month's notice is perfect. You don't say if the child is 2.5 or it's an older child you've been with that long. If the child is 2.5 don't worry about it - tell them you're leaving, you love them, here's a book/stuffed animal for you to look at/hug when you miss me, and you'll have lots of fun with your new nanny. They'll forget you in a few months. [/quote] Another MB here and I just read a study about memory in children and the loss will be felt even after the memory of the nanny fades. I'll see if I can find it for you. The sense of abandonment can be profound in a child as young as nine months. OP - I think it would be better if you could somehow stay in the child's life and fade out slowly. Maybe babysit a couple of weekends. [/quote]
