I always have a written contract with the family on what my duties/pay/and hours. If you have made an aggrement with them that you are to have weekend off, then you need to stand up for yourself and state this. I'm sure they are a great family, but you don't want to be taken advanged of either. Sit down with them and review the agreement with them.

I had one family, the agreement was to work 7am to around 6:30 or 7:00pm. For 2 weeks I wasn't getting off work until almost 9pm. So 1/2 way throught the 3rd week I finally called the mother and said that I'm not getting my freetime and starting to feel stress, because I'm not enjoying myself anymore. She AGREED, and after that she came home at 6pm. She didn't realized she was doing it. So your family, may think you're just a super nice girl. But EVERY nanny needs their alone time away from the families they work for.
