[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You might have better luck in a nanny share or finding a nanny whose family is looking for cost savings with a part time share. I'm sorry you got screwed with only a days notice. That's not cool at all.[/quote]

A day's notice for 14 unguaranteed hours a week, isn't exactly screwed.  She would change her hours and make her make up hours when she didn't need her.  The woman had a chance to start making a decent living.  OP is a SAHM.

I cannot see how OP got screwed.  [/quote]  I'm the person you quoted. I missed the part where OP is a SAHM and juggled the hours around at her whim. You're right. Had I seen that I'd have given a different answer. If OP had a part time job and was depending on childcare to get to that job then she'd be screwed and that's not OK (except maybe in special circumstances.) But, since OP wasn't relying on childcare for work, AND juggled the schedule around then I'm less sympathetic. I get that parents who stay home need a break too, and that's important, but she didn't take the nanny seriously so I'm not sure why she expected the nanny to take the job seriously.[/quote]
