[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter was sleeping at her house and my mom overslept, and did not set an alarm clock, and did not use a monitor or keep the doors open in her hallway. I found my daughter crying in her crib, hungry and wet, 4 hours after she wakes up every day. So, yeah. Short of physical injury I can't think of much worse. I want to cry just typing this.[/quote] I don't really see the issue. Hungry and wet sucks but parents do this all the time. I'm a live in nanny and have found babies still in their cribs at noon crying because the parents are too hung over. It's normal.[/quote] I really hope this is a troll.[/quote] No I am not a troll. It's not an everyday occurrence or in my case an every weekend occurrence as I work during the week. But yes I have worked for a few families that leave babies in cribs or have toddlers who roam free for upwards of 6 hrs on weekends. The older kids fend for themselves. I try and not step in as its not my place but after a 2 yr old started throwing wine bottles on the ground in the kitchen I stepped in to clean up the glass. The children wake up at 7 am the parents usually around noon. [/quote] That doesn't make it okay.[/quote] I am curious about the demographic you work for...I don't know of anyone who does this. Who are these immature drunks that can afford to keep a live-in nanny?[/quote] As someone who lives with them I see alot. Most people would never know. One was a couple who the mom was a lawyer and the dad a buisness owner . They were probably the most wealthy people I've ever worked for multi millionaires. Who should have hired a weekend nanny but very laxed parents to begin with. The other were everyday federal workers. You don't know what people do behind closed doors. I could write a book. So when I say it's normal it's because I have witnessed it a lot.[/quote] Still not normal. [/quote] Still not normal, and if you, as the nanny, did not step in to get the kid out of the crib, then you are negligent too.[/quote]
