I would without hesitation leave and get a new job. I've been teaching for quite a few years and it's scary how many parents are like that. Parents need to support you when you discipline their children and you need to be on the same side raising a child to respect themselves and others. Children love rules and clear guidelines; they thrived and are at their happiest when they know what the rules are. The more the parents argue and disagree with you, the more the child will disrespect you and your attempts at discipline. Get out of there and find a family who will respect and treat you as part of the family set-up.

I just don't get it why parents who have no need to be at work all the time (plenty do) and obviously do not want the bother of raising their kids, criticize the help they do get and expect so much more from Nannies and au-pairs than they are willing to do themselves.

If it was me, there would be skid marks out the door as I would leave so fast. There's plenty of good parents and families who have to work and would be glad of your services I suspect.

Good luck!
