Nanny gossiping

Anonymous
Isn't your nanny the one gossiping? Their nanny didn't ask YOU anything.

OP / the other nanny wanted to know what we thought they’d sold their house for and if they’d made a profit or a loss on the sale.


How did you not know that your next door neighbor's house was for sale?


I have a lot going on and it’s not my business!
They didn’t put up a sign and didn’t seem to have any showings
I don’t actually know that they’ve sold it but their nanny seems to be comfortable discussing their plans

That's gross.



Why is that gross? Everyone in a neighborhood wants to know what comparable houses sold for.


This is a really weird thread. I don’t know what the problem is.

And it’s public info, so it’s not like sharing a confidential secret.


It’s not yet public
Plus they’re a private family so it’s not for us to be discussing it

I would never ask them this
They’ll tell us in their own time

Apparently their nanny thinks it is public knowledge. I still don’t get the problem.

How nice for you that you don’t have to worry about such things. Imagine being the type of person who would report a scared nanny during a pandemic, which will most surely cause her to lose her job.

You are a terrible person and you’re lucky your kids have a nanny. Less exposure to you and your values/influence. Be better, look at yourself.


LOL you sound really intelligent

I told both nannies that it was none of my business

You have a private family making a private decision discreetly, and a disloyal employee blabbing about it

Np Lol. Have you ever watched Downton Abbey? The help ALWAYS gossip. It’s like you and a colleague bitching about your employer. It doesn’t speak to any moral failings. And OP, it doesn’t speak to your moral superiority that you’re so clueless you didn’t even notice your next door neighbor’s house was for sale!!

Okay so don't talk about it with them or the nannies, problem solved. The nannies can discuss it together if they want. This thread is unnecessary .

OP - if it was me I’d want to know that my nanny was being indiscreet.

OP / I don’t agree. The conversation was making our nanny uncomfortable
