Im all new to this but seeking advice as I feel I'm being treated unfairly! I a nanny and have continuously worked for the same family for 5 years! I got told on Monday that My boss(the father) has been made redundant and due to lack of money now they no longer need any child care and have given me 4 weeks notice! Im 26, I have a 2 1/2year old and I'm 7MONTHS PREGNANT! Is there anyone out there who could give any advice as to weather or not I'm entitled to anything!
As much as I've been very lucky to have brought my son to work with me since he was 4months old I have been very loyal to the family and I feel completely screwed over by them!!!!! Any help or advice would be greatly appriciated!!!
Many thanks

Yes they can make you redundant as your job no longer exists. Whether they have done it right is a different matter direct gov has an excellent section on redundancy. You could also try having this moved to employment which is where all the employment law specialists hang out and will be able to advise correctly.
