[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wife and I had a nanny arranged to start at the end of this month. We met her back in September and had a meet and greet with the baby, interview, contract signed, etc. We were all ready to go.

Come December our soon to be nanny stops responding. We were concerned so we emailed, messaged on Nextdoor app, Facebook, the whole nine. Nothing. We were worried about her so we went to her house and sure enough she’s there and fine. She said she’s been busy and traveled for work so hadn’t had a chance to reply (which in my opinion is a red flag, it takes 15 seconds to send a reply). She said she’d call the following week and come by to see the baby. Next week goes by and nothing again. At this point we restart our nanny search because we only have 2.5 weeks until we need someone.

We ended up finding someone we liked even better than the original nanny so it was a blessing in disguise. We let her know the contract is void due to lack of communication and still nothing. I just wanted to put it out there that as prepared as you can be, and as much as you may think you like someone and can trust them, it could go the opposite.

Has this happened to you? Is this common? Why the ghost and not just say I’m no longer interested? It’s very disrespectful and as a mother I couldn’t imagine doing this to another mom. Very disappointed. [/quote]

Why would think she was going to wait around for four months.  If you want a ailability, you pay for her to wait those four months![/quote]

She was working at the time. Read the OP.[/quote]
