Hi I was hoping for some advice on the above. We are not happy with our nanny's performance for a number of reasons, but nothing that is serious enough to warrant the disciplinary procedures set out in her contract. We have a list of quite fundamental issues that need addressing, which if we thought she was otherwise the right fit for the family, we might seek to sit down and discuss with her. On the couple of occasions we have broached small issues with her, she has been very defensive so I am not sure how well such a conversation would pan out in any event. My question therefore is, has anybody else found themselves in this position and how did you deal with it? Are there any employment law considerations if we did decide to terminate her employment? All advice and suggestions gratefully received. We are very sad to be in this position, particularly for our children, but feel strongly enough that it is not working out to do something about it sooner rather than later.
