[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MB here - it is tragic all around. Contracts don't account for these extraordinary circumstances. Just move on...[/quote] Actually they do. Our nanny is paid $18/hr. We have 3k set aside in a completely separate account that will be given direct to her if something unexpected happens, like a layoff. She relies on me to pay her bills and I have a contract that I need to PLAN to be able to uphold if the unexpected happens. The lack of business acumen and basic professionalism some parents (and nannies) exhibit on these boards is astonishing.[/quote] Well said. Thank you.[/quote] Sure, OP. $3k is not even a month's wages for $18/hr nanny, unless she is part time! Exercise some sensitivity to the fact this guy lost his job. [/quote] SHE IS LOSING HER JOB TOO! Why are you missing this? Guaranteed this guy has some sort of safety net. Nannies making barely a living wage don't have these luxuries.[/quote] This!!!! And on top of that her employer is probably also getting a severance package from his job. Everyone in here saying have a heart yada yada yada are being very insensitive to this nanny. In all professions employees have expectations yet nannies are supposed to just eat sh*t and move on to the next family. Give me a break! Nannies take care of others children and perform the duties of moms and teachers combined all day long. They take care of your most prized possession yet arent supposed to have professional expectations?![/quote]
