Terminate current helper - need new helper with nursing background



ORIGINAL POST
Posted by madchelsea 16 yrs ago
Hello, I am thinking about terminating my current helper after 7 months who is a wonderful -extremely time efficient, can follow recipes, and cleans well. She is pleasant and treats my three children very well. All my three kids adore her. Unfortunately, my eldest son who is 5 1/2 years old has OT and medical issues and we feel he would fare better with a helper that has a nursing degree or an education background. We respect our helper very much and are planning to ask her to find another family that is right for her at her convenience.


My questions are: Once she finds a new family, is it better that she resigns or I terminate?


Will she have to go back to the Philippines (Macau) and for how long?


Any information will be greatly appreciated.


Thank you.

She will need to leave HK at least for a couple of weeks.


BTW have you considered sending her to a First Aid certificate class? The HK Red Cross has a 30 hour course (10 x 3 hours) that runs on Saturday nights. Of course I don't know if this is enough to help care for your son.

Hope you find a solution to your problem - you seemed to be quite concerned about your DH (by terminating her she will miss out at least 3 months' pay before her next new contract assuming she finds one) - tell us what you have decided.

Ideally since u have an issue u should terminate her so that she can tell the truth to the new employer. However if she resigns it would not show well for her as she would be leaving u under such circumstances.
