[quote=Anonymous]When it comes to nanny employment, whether you are the employee or the employer, there are times when you have to look at for yourself.  Being sure you have a job and a way to pay the bills is important enough that it has to trump consideration for someone else. The employer is in the same exact situation, as having childcare is also necessary in order to keep his/ her job.  Neither person in this equation can really afford to put the other person's needs first, so whichever is the one who does that is likely to get screwed. This post is a good reminder to parents, that even if you know exactly when the position will end, it really is not in your best interest to tell the nanny.  The person may be a very good nanny and a thoughtful person, but they aren't going to be able to help but start looking for the next job and the chances of it lining up exactly with your position ending is just really unlikely.  I think on either side, giving the other party as much notice as you can is best, but you've really got to consider your own situation and make sure you have a back up plan if you do provide that kind of information about the end date far in the future.
