Probation Review, Appraisal and Performance Letters for Household Staff
About this document
Regular, honest feedback is the best way to keep a good working relationship with a nanny or household employee. A probation review gives both sides a chance to decide whether the arrangement is working. From 1 January 2027 employees will be able to claim unfair dismissal after six months’ service, so following a fair process becomes more important.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
