[quote=Anonymous]I gave the required 4 weeks notice due to the family relocating further than I wanted to travel and securing a spot for daycare in a couple months- none of which was shared at the time of hire.  My notice was for the end of May to be my last day and they are now terminating the contract 2 weeks early.  I shared that typically, the nanny is paid through the end of her time that was given with her notice- actually in any employment relationship.  The mother said they were not required to give notice only the terminating party, however, they are actually terminating the contract 2 weeks early.  I’ve been warned by other nannies who go through agencies about dealing with family’s who use care.com.  I have nannied for the last 9 years and I have never dealt with this.  Her excuse is she doesn’t want to miss out on a nanny because she only needs short term care, when I’ve actually shared other nannies who were fine with starting June 1.  It’s selfish and unprofessional, especially when I gave more than 30 days because I’m that type of person (learning lesson, won’t happen again).  Anyway, I told them they are in breach of contract and at this point the contract is voided and I expect payment for services rendered, and will not continue.  I don’t even care about the money, it’s the principal and you don’t treat people this way, especially the ones who take care of your child as if they were their own.

Has anyone ever been in this situation?  Would you have continued for those 2 weeks?  I don’t need them as a reference, we’re in a share and the other family has already helped me in securing a new position- they have been awesome and gave ample notice about their situation and we’re fine with me continuing with them.[/quote]
