[quote=Anonymous]No one's going to sue you (and it wouldn't hold up if they did), but this is much more of a relationship issue than legal issue. If you've been looking for a job because your current family is awful to you and you just want out ASAP, then you probably don't care that they will hold a bit of a grudge and maybe give you a lukewarm reference. But if this is some longstanding job where the family has been great and it's ending because the kids are aging out, the family is moving, you're moving, etc. then I would think much harder about the shorter notice and (if you do decide to go for the job) do what you can to help reduce the inconvenience. When I interviewed great nannies, they often had a firm stance on when they were available or how much notice they needed to give. And their nanny families gave them glowing references, called me back immediately, and otherwise were clearly trying to help their nanny find another good home. It's not a coincidence.[/quote]
