I am in the state of New Jersey and up until three days ago I was a live-in nanny. I wanted to know if anyone knew anything about laws related to domestics in house. I believe I was fired because I had an abortion. I did not advertise this, I requested an afternoon off, I did not disclose why, but I returned to the house and for some reason, she figured it out. I want to know if I have any protection available to me? I was fired without a day of severance. I lost the place I had called home for the last six months. I found the ad they are using to hire a new nanny and they are requesting "a Christian of strong moral fiber." This further proves my point that I was fired because I did something legal that didn't jive with their beliefs. Without even a day of severance. And I wasn't allowed to say goodbye to the four year old twins I nanny for. I'm a mess. :(
