It started quite well with Sam saying all the right things but she seemed quite out of touch with nannying babies. Still, after the settle ins when she started full time, suddenly one day she said her dad had an accident and she couldnt continue leaving us stranded to find a nanny replacement the next day. No notice/wind down nothing. (Curious this came a day after she asked us if during summer holidays she could take our months old baby out for full day outings with her daughter during her daughters summer holiday, which we said would be much for a baby. A few hours was fine but not a day in the burning sun.)Whilst also urging us to pay her on the day despite agreed weekly payment arrangements.which we did.

She had to be reminded to warm up childs food at 12-lunchtime rather than her wanting to take child out for walks. Clean the serving utensils after use and basic needs of a baby (versus toddlers or young children she may have been used to)
If she is now suddenly looking for work Id be very sceptical of her. Beware.
