If you are employing a nanny, mother’s help or housekeeper for the first time, you will no doubt be
fretting about how your family and it’s new addition will settle in. If this is not your first time, you are
probably even more aware of the need to create a relationship with your employee where trust, respect
and open communication are key to developing a long term valued relationship.
For parents and employee alike there may be occasions where communication seems to breakdown.
More likely than not the situation could arise where one party feels uncomfortable bringing up a
particular issue that is worrying them or they do not feel comfortable talking about. Issues could range
from development of the children, discipline, maintaining standards of the household, to issues with
language and respect. These sorts of issues could be swept under the carpet but this may only cause
heartache further down the line.
Cupcakes Relationship Management Service offers impartial advisory and mediation services. We aim to
help both parties come to a common understanding and agreement. When your children need a stable
environment, you will clearly do everything within your power to settle any differences unless clearly
unreconciliable.
When you arrange a placement through Cupcakes, we will during the first 6 weeks – the ‘settling-in’
period - offer a free Relationship Management Service. You should feel free to invoke it when required
during this period.
Cupcakes can also provide this service after the initial period including home visits to meet and mediate
with both parties if required.
