[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I need a reality check please, am I asking for too much?

I had some changes at work and my schedule now requires me to be at work s little bit earlier.  I spoke to my nanny about this and asked if she could start at 7am as opposed to 7:30am. Her response was a "NO" right away with a reason being it is too early for her and she cannot get up so early. We had her for about two years and have been super flexible, gave her time off whenever she needed it and salary advances to name a few. I am very frustrated, what do we do in this situation?[/quote]
What's it worth to you to have her come in that early? Make an offer she can't refuse.[/quote]

[b]Here is the offer I would make, OP - Come in one half hour earlier or you are fired. [/b] [/quote]
Perhaps OP is wiser than you, and she understands that her child requires stability of care. Your revolving door nannies are tragic to the development of your own child. Some parents are just so selfish, but thank goodness not all of them are like you.[/quote]

I am the PP and I am a nanny.  I feel very strongly that nannies like OP's nanny are childish and unprofessional.  She deserves to be fired if she cannot make this unavoidable adjustment.  The children will be better off without such an immature and selfish nanny.

I am being honest here and I generally always side with nannies on this forum.  But this like of entitled childish stupidity just rubs me the wrong way.  [/quote]
