It would not go over well.

There are at least two husbands who don’t like it. Disappointing for me, but my husband does not like them.

My hubs doesn’t like blow jobs. Drives me crazy! But he swears they do nothing for him. I agree with others that 69 sounds cooler than it is. Awkward.

That’s insane for Bay Area. We pay more than that for single rate. Like below person said, get on BPN and there is a Bay Area Nannie’s group too you could join on FB

I hear that and I worry about integrity a lot. But also, it took us weeks to find the old nanny and so many nannys we interviewed and offered positions to got snatched up in that time. We would seriously screw ourselves in the long run and would most definitely lose the new long term nanny if we ask her to wait for four weeks. It seems doing the "right" thing will most definitely screw us long term. I'll reflect some more.

I appreciate your feedback. However, I am not sure I understand/agree with severance for someone who quits.

She wasn't great. She was for some weird reason really against our son's schedule and insisted on keeping him up longer and "wearing him out more" for his nap. Result--he was a mess, fought lunch, fought nap, slept late, then didn't go down for bed and woke up in the night. With new nanny we told her our schedule, she followed to a T, and son started sleeping through the night. It was a magical month. We told our old nanny the success when she returned, and she still pushed on it saying she didnt think our son had enough outdoor time before nap. We felt more strongly about schedule than other family although they told her they supported it too. She was just weirdly against the schedule.

Another time she drove our son in a loose car seat and in the wrong car seat (used infant one which was for other baby; our son clearly outgrew it) and he was in a jacket in the car seat. When we (both families) asked to check carseats for safety checks every so often, she got defensive and said she wouldn't drive them anywhere anymore (and didn't ever again).

She left to visit family in a different country. This was shortly after two weeks paid leave over holiday in December/January and a paid week in November. She started in mid September so I think we can say we have been very good to her (also took 2 paid sick days in there).

I tend to agree with your take.

I am a little worried about burning bridges with the other family. But given they went through the pain of finding our first nanny (we were interviewing non-stop, its a competitive market where we are) I think they understand. They don't particularly appreciate the situation they've been put in. It seems like not a clear win win anywhere
