[quote=Anonymous]I have been with a family for a few weeks, (posted about the 5 year old hitting me recently)  and will be quitting. My question is can I shorten my notice if there is just cause for me to terminate the contract. The contract, written by the parents states the 30 days notice is needed for termination or resignation, unless there is just cause. My reasoning is that the oldest child has threatened to hit me, has actually hit me, has thrown things at me and his youngest siblings (including a baby. them on a regular basis.) I am not comfortable with how the parents are handling it, they’ve effectively disregarded any advice or suggestions, all in the child’s best interest, instead opting for ‘positive parenting,’ which has been entirely ineffective with this child, for me.  I’m honestly very uncomfortable, due to things the mother has said about the last nanny, as well as the child’s behavior and feel like if it’s more than two weeks, it will cause resentment, if it doesn’t already in that period. It’s not like me to quit so quickly, or to break a contract and give short notice, but this experience is unlike anything I’ve encountered before. Any advice would be appreciated. [/quote]
