The engagement of any employee will be regarded as an acceptance of the conditions set out below:
- The client agrees to notify ‘All London Nannies’ immediately when an engagement is agreed and accepted and then to pay the required agreed fee (as quoted in our fee structure) within 10 days of invoice or before the nanny commences employment (whichever is sooner.
