[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You may owe her the money, OP.  You contracted to have her work for those days and it seems right that you pay her.  I know it sort of sucks but you and the nanny made an agreement.

Agreed. Even at normal jobs, if you tell your employer you’re giving them two weeks notice, they have to pay you for those two weeks even if they ask you to not work your notice. This happened to me at an accounting position because they weren’t comfortable having an employee writing checks who would be leaving the company. They issued me a check for two weeks of pay and all wages owed and gave it to me on my last day. I think she could take you to small claims court if you don’t pay her. Also, are you sure she is working for the other family during this time period? When I left one nanny job for a new one, my old boss asked me to extend my notice from three weeks to four, and I asked my new family if that was ok with them. They arranged for other childcare until I could start fulltime. If my boss had said she no longer wanted me to work my notice, I would’ve be out of work until the new job started on the arranged date.[/quote]

No, they can terminate you on the spot.   Or, pay for the two weeks you work.[/quote]
