Please! Mother and I are at whits end!!!?

I am a new nanny to 4 boys! I need advice!?

Ok, here is the deal. I started nannying 4 boys 2-9yo about 3 weeks ago. The two older go to school, and the 4 and 2 yo stay home with me. Here is the deal, they left the honeymoon era and are into the hellraising era. The 4 yo will not clean his room as asked and continues to throw temper tantrums not doing what he is asked to. I have taken all privilages away including is pet fish! I don't know what else to do! Any advice?

The 9 and 6 yo are great at helping, but they have mouths and sneak. Any advice on that part too??

    Discuss with the parents as to how they expect the children to be disciplined.

  • Tell the older children to help be a role model for him. Find his most favorite thing to do, like play outside, play video games, watch tv, and take that away for a day and make him apologize.

    Talk to their mother and tell her to discpiline them correctly.
