[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, OP, let me see if I have got this straight:

You hired a nanny for full time.  You agreed on a start date and she possibly turned down other offers.  Then, you decided to only use her part time.  And she agreed.  And now you want to fire her without ever giving her a chance to do the job she was initially hired to do?

OP here. It's been almost six weeks. She has missed a 1 or both days almost every week. I know she was sick twice but we need someone reliable. We already had a talk with her and then she missed the two days after she said she wouldn't miss any other days because she was sick. I don't feel we have done anything wrong. [/quote]

Well, frankly, you are wrong.  You hired her for full time and changed the terms of her employment.  She needs employers who are reliable.  I’m fairly certain she took another job out of necessity and called in sick so she wouldn’t have to admit it.  She needed the money.  I would absolutely give her a month of full time to see how it works out for all of you.

You have a responsibility as an employer, OP.  This is not some teenage babysitter trying to earn pocket-money - this is an adult who is supporting herself and perhaps a family.  [/quote]
