She asked if she should talk to her or just look for a new job. My response was to do both, because perhaps MB will respond by cutting her hours formally. On the one hand, that would suck, but on the other hand, a reliable reduced schedule would mean she could look for fill-in work while she looks for a new job.
Based on the description here, I think it is unlikely the conversation will end with MB promising to pay in full for all hours the nanny doesn't work, but I guess that could happen, too. I still think she should find a new job, because it is also unlikely that people are going to pay for a full time nanny they don't use for any length of time.
