[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]About 14 years ago I was nannying for 2 babies. I got let go after 3 weeks and I posted on here because I didn’t think the reason was a good one and wanted perspective. I got slammed by everyone. 
(the 12week old was sleeping on his stomach, I was with him the whole time watching him, sent a pic to parents because it was cute, they said never put baby on stomach and I was let go. I do know that it’s not safe, but 2 babies was a lot, and I felt it was ok at the time because I stayed watching him) [/quote]

Ohhh, they are very brutal in the Nanny Forums.

So sorry.[/quote]
I mean, I would also have fired a new nanny that thought it was a good idea to put my baby to sleep on his stomach and send me a picture of it.  [/quote]

Yes![/quote]

You would actually FIRE an otherwise good Nanny just because she put your child to sleep on his or her stomach??
 
This is outrageous! 😤
Unless you specifically instructed her not to do this -&gt; this is not a fireable offense!!

You sound like a mentally unstable helicopter parent who would be much better off staying home w/your child vs. leaving them in the care of a nanny.

* I mean this with one-hundred percent respect by the way. ;)[/quote]

DP. I would 100% fire a nanny that put the baby to sleep on its stomach. This is basic childcare knowledge. [/quote]

This is not a reason to fire a nanny on the spot.
A lot of parents put their babies in their crib/bassinet on their stomachs ….. it isn’t basic childcare knowledge.

I put all four of my babies to sleep on their stomachs and they have all been healthy, thriving kids -&gt; adults.

I would fire a nanny who abused or neglected my child.
I.e., left him alone in the bathtub, fell asleep while child was unsupervised or drove them inside a car w/out a car seat, etc.

But not for putting my infant down on his stomach! ??[/quote]

A nanny isn’t supposed to be clueless about safe sleep practices and basic childcare knowledge. You’re feeling defensive because you were.[/quote]
