[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cracking up that someone doesn't get why this is a problem. Every family is different. They are not interchangeable. Working for different families requires different things of a nanny and she may wish to set different expectations/rates accordingly. Furthermore, I am a NANNY because I enjoy building a relationship with my employers and working together for the good of the children, because I am selective in who I work for, and because I want stability in when and how much I am paid and predictability regarding job requirements. If I didn't care about the relationships, wasn't picky about taking jobs and didn't want stability, I would just work as a temp/backup nanny. [/quote] Right. A nanny isn't property you loan out.[/quote] Because you are looking at it wrong. Of course you shouldn't be hired by someone who misrepresents themselves and uses you as a free agent nanny to make money on the side, but just like in any REAL job if your boss tells you to go to a different store, office, site, client, whatever you go. Truth is MB probably just didn't need a 5 day a week nanny anymore but likes and respects the OP so she doesn't want to lose her by cutting hours. So she found work for her nearby, it's not like she's sending her to West Virginia. Maybe she isn't the most tactful person but it sounds like she has good intentions, OP isn't out of a job, and isn't falling behind on her bills like all the bad nannies in the credit check whining thread. I still see no problem with this.[/quote]
