Any?

Not all women are whores like you.

I would and I have. I trust DH, but if DH is the type to stray, then I want to know ASAP so that I don't waste a second more with him. Plus, my priority is finding the best care for my son. I am confident in my own looks though. I snapped right back after pregnancy and don't have any stretch marks or sagging skin. If DH wants to ride off into the sunset with the nanny, I'll be back on the market to find his replacement before he knows it.

Just interviewed a nanny with great credentials and honestly she seems way smarter and potentially better than any of the other candidates we've interviewed so far. However, she is very young, gorgeous, has a bod that makes Kate Upton look like a homely nobody and wears clothes that make that very clear. I'm sure I'm particularly sensitive to the contrast since I am a new Mom and feel like a flabby lactating mess.

I trust my DH, I know the nanny has a serious boyfriend (and anyway while I love him most Kate Upton lookalikes are unlikely to find my dear DH that interesting lol) but I don't know if it is just asking for trouble. I will be traveling a lot once I go back to work and although it is admittedly silly, I don't know if I will feel weird knowing my DH is spending time (even if it just transitioning before and after work) with this lady.

IDK - If I were interviewing for a nanny position (or any position), I don't think I'd wear clothes that accentuate my figure. Professional, yes, tight clothes, no.

What does your husband think of this person?

PP here. I should add that I am the moneybags in the relationship and make more than DH, so if he strays, his quality of life will take a significant nosedive. Both he and the nanny will be fighting over whose turn it is to pick up the check at McDonald's.

Pretty normal. Though your DH might not admit it.

A DH here. I'd definitely notice a scantily clad middle schooler, but I wouldn't stare.

The PP is sick.

first, no

She dresses to emphasize this amazing body to an interview? Hell no

Honestly? I would hire the best person for the job. I wouldn't want to settle for less (this is your children you are talking about) because she is beautiful. But I completely trust my husband. I don't give in to the argument of why bring temptation into the house. Temptation is everywhere. If he is going to cheat, he is going to cheat. Bottom line, I am more concerned about picking the better candidate...smarter, sweeter etc. If you aren't secure in your marriage, why did you marry your husband? Just my two cents....

Men can develop feelings for (non-familial) women who look after their kids.... don't hire her.

Nanny here. I will never again interview with a family if the father works out of a home office, and is home all the time.

It's a very weird thing to have him watch you love and care for his baby... the way the wife "typically" would, IF she were there?
He eventually started to make passes at me, so I left them. I don't think the mother was ever concerned that her husband was "that" type of guy. I still feel horrible about leaving that child.

Don't do it. Why create a potential problem?

Think about it this way. Is having a deadly attractive woman in your home who might disrupt your marriage really the best choice for your child?

A dad here. Smh. So many of my fellow males are such losers. We've had a a few beautiful, intelligent, funny nannies. I may have looked at their butts some but beyond that I never said or did anything inappropriate. What would be the point?!?

OP, go with your gut.

I don't understand why mothers do this kind of setup. Don't people understand how different things are in the man's own home, when his wife is far away? Complete privacy with the nanny/au pair while kid is napping.

Do none of you trust your husbands?
