[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny quit a few weeks ago. It was a nanny share, and she chose to stay with the other family, and quit from working with us. She gave us 2 weeks notice originally, although extended to 3 weeks notice, although our contract asked for 30 days.

We were rushing to find other care, and eventually as we got closer to the end of the 3 weeks, we asked if she'd be willing to work the rest of the 30 days in case we couldn't find other care before then. She said yes. Luckily, we found other care, and were able to honor her 3 weeks request, and move on. We thought everything was done with her.

Now she is contacting us asking for money. Even though the other family from the share is paying her full-time, she is asking for money from us to finish out the 30 days. It's ironic because she didn't even remember the 30 day part of the contract until we reminded her of it.

So even though she wanted to quit with only 2 weeks notice originally, now she wants 30 days of pay even though she's still being paid full-time by the other family! If we had known she felt this way, we would have waited to start our other care after the 30 days. But we were rushing to meet her needs.

We feel stressed by her continuing to contact us, and worried about her taking things further. Any suggestions?[/quote]

So you are talking about one week’s pay?

The nanny didn’t want to give you 30 days but she did finally work three weeks and give you the last week, completing her commitment.  If I understand this correctly, yes -you absolutely owe her the last week.  [/quote]
