I worked T and R, and asked MB about putting him down for naps. She was fine with this. So T and R I worked, and he napped. T I worked and he napped. R was the next time I worked, and she tells me not to have him nap, because he falls asleep at " 'midnight' ". <br /><br />He's falling asleep standing up and I couldn't nap him per MB's request. I figured out why he was falling asleep at midnight and it had nothing to do with his napping.<br /><br />He was so tired he'd crash at 430, and she would let him sleep until 7p. <br /><br />She was too argumentative, so I quit. <br /><br />the teaching divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07213788112330028216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-89362819720074172202017-08-16T10:09:23.371-04:002017-08-16T10:09:23.371-04:00A two week notice is fair.

Even though there is a lack of appreciation from your perspective they may actually think highly of you and give you an excellent reference. I agree the pay is low for someone with experience and college educated . Move on and be happy! and know that you are not alone. For future references never be afraid to speak up and set boundaries. Never accept a job with a family that is wrong for you. Parents may interview us but you can interview them as well to make sure you are ok with their expectations if not move on. Hope things work out for you.Jacquie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15063586325152759974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-79376100756614616982017-08-16T00:32:19.769-04:002017-08-16T00:32:19.769-04:00Abusive?

Are you there with her children at bedtime to know if they're going to sleep late because of the "late" naps? No, didn't think so. And a mother who wants her children to be busy and not have a nanny sitting around is fine too. Sure, the pay sucks, but everything else sounds fine. <br />OP, give two weeks' notice.

The mother's behavior about the naps could result in harm to the kids and you may be blamed. Do not expect the mother to be professional when you give notice, get your new job asap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
