[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our nanny had been with us since our youngest was 4 months old. She cared for him in a share and then cared for him and his new brother. For the last year, she has only had the younger one to watch most of the day while the is at school. She makes $30+/hour.

We stay out or her way and let her do whatever she thinks is best with the boys. She’s a true pro and has been a nanny for more than 30 years.

My spouse and I are stumped - we have been very kind and very generous to her. And our boys are good natured, way going guys. I do most of the nanny-related stuff, and was shocked she would just drop this on us midweek. She claims she’s just ready to do something different. When we asked if she has a new job, she said no. After the second year when she was just with us and not in a share, we did not have her resign a contract. When I expressed disappointment/shock at her giving us such short notice, and pointed out that the contracts we initially signed contemplated 30 days, she commented that she didn’t sign a contract.

Honestly, I was speechless. That she didn’t give me more time to find a good replacement for these little guys that’s she’s cared for really is so very disappointing. It was like she didn’t even care.
