[quote=Anonymous]That’s tough, but it’s hard to understand and accept that the nanny is doing what may be best for her at the expense of your family. This may take some time, but remember she has been with for five years and I’m sure loves each of you and isn’t personal towards any of you.

Not sure what your notice period amount is as I do think two is super short (still very acceptable)—makes this transition seem rushed.

If you feel as though you have an open and warm relationship with your nanny (prior) you could certainly ask if there is anyway she stay on a bit longer so you have more time find a nanny and possibly overlap before you head back to work. Even ask, if your nanny would be willing to help write something up (to help with the older) and even potential “train”—not necessary.

Most importantly, start looking NOW! This board, liservs, recommendations and even agencies are great! This is also a good time to snag veteran nannies whose littles will be headed off to full-time now too.

In fact, I know a few great ones who are looking too!

Best of luck!

This will all work out!!![/quote]
