[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks to those who have posted useful replies. I feel bad for the nanny, because being laid off sucks, but given the way the first few weeks went, I know I’m not ever going to be happy with her watching my kids. So I’ll pay her severance, be as polite as possible, and let her get on with her life.[/quote] OP, another nanny employer here. You’re doing what needs to be done to be a good person, and in fact going above and beyond. Not sure why nannies sign a contract including a trial period and then don’t expect a trial. My nanny requested such provision’s removal as she knew if she was let go even during a trial period she’d need a few weeks of pay to tide her over. So, our notice provision governs…but she’d have to work to get paid if we wanted her to. It’s a job, not an adoption.[/quote]
