[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. I nanny 5yo twin boys so probably a similar workload to your nanny. This summer was incredibly difficult. It was so hot, we had no real reprieve and it was exhausting trying to keep everyone entertained and quiet and constantly intervening in their bickering because they are sick of one another after all this time with nobody else to play with for days on end. Your nanny isn’t “getting too comfortable.” She is burnt out. I recently told my bosses that I need to cut back my hours because I am so fried after this summer and they said they would look for someone else. 4 weeks later and they said more than one agency in our major metropolitan region told them “we literally have zero nannies right now; any nanny who calls us gets snapped up right away.” So now I am staying with reduced hours an a substantial raise. Maybe see if you can give your nanny an extra long weekend over Thanksgiving so that she can reset and relax.[/quote]
