[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Take the job you want, OP.  One month isn't a long enough time to have bonded with either the baby or the family.  Give a lot of notice and know that they will find the right nanny for them.  [/quote]

Unfortunately family one would have already rejected their runner up picks and may have even paid a fee to care.com or an agent. And now the mom is back at work, which is likely a serious career hence she didn't drop out of the work force. How they must go back to the drawing board, run another search process and likely take vacation days off of work to interview or do a shadow day.

Don't expect them to gush all over you when you make your announcement. The best case is they treat you civilly over the remainder of your time there. Ultimately they'll be disappointed. Does your contract say one month notice? Many do since it is very disruptive to be blindsided by a quitting employee. If no good nannies are available the mother or father might have to tell their office they need more time off. [/quote]
