[quote=Anonymous] Who is in the wrong? I start with a new family almost a month ago. I recently just quit after basically getting fired. I worked the first week ( 2 days) and everything went well. I didn’t really care for the mom because she had used words I felt were unprofessional and just dumped a lot on me about the dad not wanting another child, etc. She would call me “ dear” and “ sis”. I felt it was too friendly but didn’t say anything because I liked the job. The second week in I worked half the week ( position is 3 days a week) and then I ended up slipping and spraining my ankle badly. This was towards the end of the week and I had to miss two days out of the third week. I was fine did the third but they canceled because the dad was going to take the baby to his parents house for the weekend. I was not paid and request for my pay was meant for silence. I thought everything was fine but then they started ignoring me when I asked about the weeks upcoming hours. After 5 days, the mom literally said she would pay me that day and nothing. No response about the job but I noticed she posted for a new nanny. I wrote her an email about not understanding where we are. She got very nasty and blamed everything on me. She called my references back and told them to never recommend me again. I still was never actually fired and she refused to answer if I was. I eventually just said I no longer felt comfortable working with their family. I know I missed work but I don’t think I deserved this kind of treatment. I stayed on even after she pushed my start date back by a couple of weeks. I also found out she blocked my number after me canceling because I was hurt. [/quote]
