My Family Wants Me To Remain Available But They Are Cutting My Hours | Q&A

Posted on by Admin Team

 

Hi everyone. Laura from Nanny Parent Connection here. Hope you are getting excited for Halloween!

I wanted to reach into the mailbag again and discuss another question that I hear regularly from nannies. This can be a bit of a complicated topic:

“I absolutely love working with my nanny family and I want to continue working with them. However, as we are transitioning to the school year, they are cutting my hours by wanting me to commit solely to them and remain available to work additional hours. How can I go about navigating this with them while keeping my income requirements in mind?”

Let’s discuss this! Click the button below to watch and I would love to hear your comments on this topic. Thanks in advance!
