[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What could she possibly be doing at the park to get fired for cause?? So curious!! [/quote]

She was texting the entire time![/quote]
It probably is something ridiculous like this. [/quote]

[b]Firing for texting is not ridiculous.  I will fire our nanny if I ever catch her texting again when she should be watching my children and our nanny knows it.  [/quote][/b]

PP, Are you for real...??! To fire a nanny over sending a text message is just [i]insane.[/i] I say go ahead and do it...You will be doing your nanny a HUGE favor since you sound like a Type A and then some boss.  :shock:

OP: I would simply make sure she is compensated for the days worked and then show her her walking papers.

It wouldn't make any sense to tell her she is going to be canned, then allow her two weeks notice to find another position. She most likely will do something either to your home or your child and you don't want to be worrying about any vengeful acts on her part.

This is cause for immediate dismissal. Do not pay her a dime for any days not worked, even if you had scheduled them prior. She's toast and she is done.[/quote]

PP here and our nanny texting CONSTANTLY when she is out with DD is a problem.  So yes, she has been warned several times and if I catch her again, she will be fired.  She is not texting either DH or I and she has plenty of time to take care of her personal business on Fridays (she works M-TH) and during the two hours when DD is asleep.
