So im a live-in nanny, which usually ,eans as part of the wage/benefits food is paid for. obv not all food, but it is part of the job. I began my job wednesday and I havent been able to discuss with parents anything, theyve gone away leaving me here, and Im expected to pay for everything. I dont mind paying for stuff like food, getting keys cut and train to meet them monday as long as im reinbursed and its after my first payday, but im now out of money completely. Im paid weekly but assuming its in arrears I dont have enough to support myself and pay train to them. I just wondered if anyone with a nanny, or is a nanny, has any suggestions how to approach this and also what is the amount to expect for food? I buy my own as the family hasnt offered but the prob is im a bigger girl so i dont want them to think its all about food, thats all i think about, but im hungry and i have no money! maybe this is a chance for me to moan but any thoughts at all appreciated.
