[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you made the right decision, OP.[/quote]

I think OP made the right decision to stand her ground but not in firing the nanny without giving her a chance to come around over the weekend.  And not for the nanny's sake - but for the older kid's sake.  [/quote]

The nanny looked through her tax papers and then demanded a raise because, in her opinion, they have extra money. Who knows what she's saying about the parents to the child, especially once they denied the raise.

And she was given a lot of time to think about it. What did she think it meant when she said $27.50 wasn't acceptable? This is why you don't give ultimatums you aren't willing to follow through on.

I agree with everything you have have posted.  But still would have given the nanny the weekend to rethink her ultimatum.

Maybe it is different for OP but my children are very connected to their nanny and love her.  I would soften my final decision for their sake and let the nanny come back.  [/quote]

You can actually imagine your nanny doing exactly what OP's nanny did, having the multiple conversations they had about it, and then you'd still feel that way about her?

I'm guessing your nanny is a better person to begin with.[/quote]
