[quote=Anonymous]"Let's assume that because the MB takes it personally that the nanny is quitting and then vindictively fires the nanny. What does she do for childcare until she finds a new nanny (unless she thinks the nanny is not trustworthy/not good anyway, in which case knowing the nanny is checked out makes her nervous about the nanny not paying attention to the kids in the notice period). I just think this can't possibly happen all that often for this reason because most parents need as long as they can get to find new childcare. It's HARD to find someone you think is reliable and trustworthy. Most parents would prefer to leave their kids with someone they may have a personal disagreement with but who they know will take care of the kids over a stranger ... "

I am another "this makes no sense" poster. agree with the above. HOWEVER, although I cannot imagine firing our nanny earlier since I'd want the max time possible to line up a replacement, if our nanny gave notice w/o having let me know she was not happy w/ work conditions, pay, whatever - and was giving me no shot at "fixing" the issue, then yeah, I'm going to be ticked. I think that is natural though especially considering how critically vital communication is to the nanny relationship and the desire of most MBs to hang onto a nanny they are pretty happy w/ for as long as they can.[/quote]
