[quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. I never overestimate what I can do, but sometimes I purposefully underestimate because parents can be unreasonable. There is no way that it's ok for a nanny to say she's a great driver, comfortable on highways when she isn't, especially to the extent that activities have to cancelled. With that said, what does your contract specify for firing for cause and/or a trial period? Most of my trial periods are 2 weeks-1 month, and it's a trial for both sides (so when a family decides that it isn't working, I handle it with the same professionalism that I expect when I tell them it isn't a good fit). Lying/overexaggerating aptitude would be considered cause for most people, especially if the routine has to be changed to accommodate the nanny. In that case, no severance is due, nor should you need to provide notice.[/quote]
