[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a nanny seeking employment, it would be a huge red flag if a potential new family confided in me during an interview that their former nanny quit via text after a year and a half so suddenly and without reason.

I wouldn't take the position unless they let me talk to the former nanny personally.[/quote]

I don't see why they would ever mention this to a potential new nanny.[/quote]

[b]Any smart nanny will ask about any former employees they may have had (in the same way we are asked about former employers) and how/why that relationship ended. Of course OP could lie, but if the question clusters her, and she seems unwilling to provide the reference, it will definitely turn off candidates[/b]. [/quote]

OP here, interesting point, and thank you . I would not lie and of course provide the contact information . Maybe that will be how I will find out what happened ? Thank you for letting me know that may come up. [/quote]

What makes you think that your former nanny will want her contact information given out to strangers?  She's not even responding to you--why would she want to talk about why she left to complete strangers!  Ridiculous suggestion.[/quote]
