[quote=Anonymous]OP you were pushy. I would never have left a nine-month-old baby for a weekend with anyone, let alone my employer, and that isn’t unusual. I don’t blame her for being uncomfortable, and you pushed her to give an answer you didn’t like. I say this as someone who employed the same nanny for nearly fifteen years. Also, I was (and am) very close to our nanny, but it’s insulting to pretend that you aren’t like an employer to her. You are always her employer. As someone said above, she never forgets that. It is demeaning to her professionalism for you to try to forget that or to minimize that relationship. Our nanny comes to every single important event in our family, every graduation and religious ceremony. She will be at my kids’ weddings, she will be at every major event for the rest of our lives, I think. We think that world of her, and she reciprocates. But that doesn’t mean she wasn’t our employee for all that time. [/quote]
