[quote=Anonymous] :cry: My employers had told me recently that they would renew my contract( i made sure to ask them so i could start looking for a new family with time). Anyways that was 4 months ago when i asked them. They said dont worry Kimberly we will extend your contract. Now my contract has ended 5 weeks ago and surprise they said they wont renew because they will put the 2 kids in daycare(vague excuse). I have been in this business for 10 years and never has a family played with me like that or lied to me in such a deplorable way. If they didnt wanted me why not be blunt and say it? Now its 5 weeks and i havent been able to find work. I have talked to 30 persons and they all think my references and experience is not worth $35 per hour. They all cheap-skates who think a nanny with references and a career isnt worth more than 20 bucks or 25 if they have 3 kids. Im going nuts. I dont know what to do. I came with this family from Michigan and now im stranded in Virginia with no money and rent is coming and i wont be able to afford it all because this people is so ungrateful. I never did anythinf wrong i alwaysbgave the best of me. I always asked is everything alright? Is therr anything i could improve? They always said everything was okay. Idk if they mad that when the 2 twins slept for 3 hours i slept too(but i had already taken care of their areas being neat and bottles and making their food) this industry is treating us nannies as crap and is the most ungrateful industry ever. Can anyone relate? Nannies are you also experiencing this problem? How to solve it? In Michigan i had families crazy for me i was always fully booked and now i have no one here. I cant go back because i dont even have money to do that. I guess ill become homeless. What would you do in my situation? Settle for 20 bucks an hour with an ungrateful family who will only use me and gives no crap about me although im giving all of myself in their childcare?  :(  i just wanna unalive myself right now being honest. Im frustrated and depressed.[/quote]
