No you should not wait untill you have a licence to quit this job. Do as the pp says and look for a job that doesn't need a driver. Some jobs will state that they do not need a driver - apply for these. You will be looking for jobs with small children and jobs in the city near public transport routes.

Get a letter of reference from your MB - tell her you want it for babysitting or volunteering or for a course or whatever. Find a new job and then leave this position.

"Im tired of being nickeled and dimed and treated like an indentured servant" next time put in more effort at a contract that you feel treats you fairly

An experienced nanny would likely have been through this before and would have known to include it - unless you were lucky to have extra generous and conscientious employers before now.

I think you're getting no replies because no one knows what you're asking. Should you quit now or wait? Only you can decide that... Yes, it will be harder to get a job without a license but it is not impossible. I don't know what your cost of living is, how much you have saved, how marketable you are, or what your local market looks like, so I can't say whether it makes sense to stay until you get a license or not.

I will say that you should begin looking for a new job BEFORE you quit. Why not start now and if you find someone willing to hire you without a license, great, go ahead and quit. If not, you will have at least a crappy job to pay the bills until you become a stronger candidate?

I'm honestly not inexperienced....When I will say when I first started I just did not realize the importance to discuss these things.....

You sound inexperienced. All of the issues should be in a signed work agreement. Get a good one off google and use it for your next position.

I don't have a license and have never had an issue finding jobs. I look for metro accessible positions working with very young infants, so the parents aren't really concerned about them being driven places. I wouldn't let not having a license keep me at a job where I was being treated unfairly.

I've been working with the family I've been with almost 5 months. I've already decided I don't want to stay long team maybe a year or so. I posted on here yesterday about approaching MB about time off and even after talking to her she still doesn't get it. Im tired of being nickeled and dimed and treated like an indentured servant. I deserve better. I wish sitting down with her could resolve my issues with the position but I feel it's a little to late of both parts. I love her kids but at the end of the day I have needs.

I get NO PTO (Paid time off) or sick days- I've been sick a few times since I started this position and have never said a word about it and still came to work. I've never wanted to call out because once it hits me its mostly the night before and I think that's to short of notice. What should I do. I still need to be paid. NO Paid vacation- they are planning a week long vacation and I believe they are planning on just not paying me for the entire week. For me this will not work out. I have a monthly budget and this will set me back if we do do so.

When i sat down and talked to MB about a similar topic (Guaranteed hours) and it somewhat got resolved. It works for them, not so much for me We came to the conclusion that if there was ever a time she didn't need me she would calculate the hours and I would make them up. For example if she came home early or decided to stay home. Now that I think about this a kinda feel like an indentured servant and that she should be paying for my availability on the days and times she stated she would need me. I have decided to let this go and go with the flow because I should have added what I wanted in the contract in the beginning and went over this at the interview. So I know for next time.

Pretty much I'm ready to quit and find something else but the smart way. Since I don't have my license yet I already know this puts me at the low end of the nanny jobs basically people want someone who drives. Is it a smart idea to wait it out in this position until I get my license and then find something else. It will take me about eight months. Or should I just quit now. I also have drawn up my own detailed contract addressing the issues above. I really love this family outside of these issues.
