[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am going to be the tough one here. Op, I feel you. I was with a family for 3 years and helped raised their son from 6 weeks. They decided to move to Montessori school. They gave me two weeks notice. I was blindsided and upset. Then I realized this is the nature of the job. My MB and DB make the decision for their family and I have no say in when or what time they move on to daycare, school, etc. They are making a decision best for their family and I had to respect that. They don't owe me anything but notice. I understand your hurt but it seems like the gave you two weeks notice. I think you have become a little too attached, and they were quite shocked by your reaction and behavior. I'm hoping you didn't address why he shouldn't go to daycare at that age because it isn't your business. As long as they give you proper notice, they do not need to discuss any future plans with you. Frankly, you seem naive. I think you acted very unprofessionally. As adults we realize things like this come to end, and even though it sucks, we finish out a commitment and move on. There will be infinite amount of changes and you need to develop the maturity to handle things a little better. Leaving right away has likely shown you in a very poor light. I wouldn't be surprised if you have to kiss that reference goodbye. Lastly, you do not need to explain how good of a nanny you are. Choosing daycare has nothing to do with your work. They chose a route that better serves this phase in life. If transitions are this tough on you, maybe you should choose a profession with less emotional connections. [/quote] I would also like to note that I still am in touch with the family. I was upset but so glad for them. I finished out my two weeks and left gracefully. You seem a little immature and crazy. I think being a nanny is too difficult for you. [/quote]
