[quote=Anonymous]Well, that was a lousy thing they did. They should have at least called or gone ahead with the interview. I've been the nanny parents hired and then cancelled other interviews with. Except once (I'm not sure exactly what happened) but I went for an interview that was set up last minute. I got to the house sat on the floor with one of the babies in my lap and a young woman came to the door, came in and tried to take the baby from me. I had no idea who she was or why she was there. The mom took her out on the porch and talked to her for a few minutes and came back alone. She said she was testing her and then went on with the interview while cooking dinner. I don't know if she hired her on a trial bases and it wasn't working or what (there were three kids under three so it wasn't the job for just anyone.) I felt bad for the other nanny and hope she found something perfect. I've been with that family 2.5 years now. It's the hardest job I've had in a lot of ways. I was hired for one year but it has gone longer. Kids will all be in full day school next year. All that to say sometimes parents find the one and hire them on the spot. It was wrong for them not to call you and to not tell you they had other interviews lined up...especially after telling you they had to change the time due to work when that was obviously not true.
