I just hope it doesn't come to that.

You can find a great job in a day ? That's a pretty bold statement. Lots of people get laid off and it takes them months if not years to find employment that is comparable to what they had lost. Let's hope you are not one of them but statements like yours are in poor taste.

This entire post is in poor taste.

The only reason nanny posted this was to brag about how awesome of a nanny she is.

She's so awesome her employers will do anything to keep her even though they are stressed.

She's so awesome she could find a new job just like that.

+1 db lost is job that is awful and the nanny is bragging that she can find one so quick. It's like putting salt in an open wound. Let's hope her db doesn't know her true feelings about how easy it is to get a great job in 1 day

Seriously don't allow yourself to be responsible for their ( probably) poor financial decisions.


If were you I'd start preparing for a job search.

They may think they can keep you now, but who knows how long he'll be out of work.

That is a bold assumption to assume the do not make good financial decisions. We do not know why dad lost his job. They are doing something right If they can afford to keep the nanny.

They are probably planning to pay nanny out of their savings and whatever compensation db will receive from his lost job. The problem is DB may not find a replacement job quickly and if a job is found it may not be at the level of income they are accustomed to. All the while savings is being depleted.

This is the exact scenario an MB posted about 2 weeks ago, and she was frantic trying to hold on to a nanny they should have let go before shooting themselves in the foot financially.

I won't even get into the expenses of a new child.

No wonder so many of the parents here think nannies are stupid. The reading comprehension of the nannies here is shockingly low.

Thank you for your useless comment. Let the adults talk.

Work for them for free. Problem solved.

I wouldn't feel guilty, since it is their choice to keep you on, but I would do my best to show that it is appreciated. I would also begin preparing myself to find a new job. You have no idea how long it will take him to find work, or how long they can afford to pay you, no matter how well intentioned they may be.

I love my NF. They are amazingly kind and I enjoy working for them very much.
We have a good working relationship.
DB lost his job last week. When he told me, the first thing he said was "please don't worry about your job. We love you and we need you."
That was very thoughtful, but I still feel super guilty. He has been super stressed lately. They've had a lot of house repairs come up, he lost his job and MB found out she is expecting very recently.
A nanny is a huge expense and I almost feel guilty that they have to pay me. I know it sounds nuts, but I do. I've always gone above and beyond for them, but I find myself running around like a crazy person trying to do extra things out of guilt, as if I have to prove my value.
Has anyone else been in this situation? Either nanny of MB/DB?
