[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a pretty amazing daycare teacher who just has that “it factor” with little kids.  She is also wonderful with babies.  I used to work with her and witnessed her talents with young children.  So I set her up with a dear family friend who was needing four hours on one weekend day (guaranteed/$25 an hour).  The kids loved her.  However about 30% of the time she either cancelled on the family or didn’t show up.  Once she cancelled on them to go to a party where I happened to be after telling the family she was sick.

Now she has a serious family money crisis and has asked me again to help her find a weekend nanny gig.

I am reticent to recommend her because of her issue with unreliability.  WWYD?  I am a nanny and know I wouldn’t recommend her to work on weekends with my current charge and his parents.  Then again, her family situation is real and dire.

Thanks! [/quote]

OP here.  Nothing.  No job has come up and I haven’t spoken to my friend since I posted.  I am going to talk to her about my issues when a job comes up.  Based on her reply (if she owns it or denies it) I will recommend or not.

Thanks for the input.  She’s young and has to get it together.  [/quote]
