[quote=Anonymous]I'm not a nanny but a home educator. I had a parent really want to start homeschool co-op and we had a trial day with the child to see if it works or not. That day was hell and the child clearly wasn't ready to be in a class of peers without being disruptive. The parents took my observations and honest opinion to heart and we waited a year. If anyone working with your child says hey this isn't working I can't imagine you forcing them to do it. Isn't that what you're paying them for? To put your child's best interests first even when it's different than what you want it to be? I've been in a nanny role before too and wouldn't say to a parent hey this isn't working unless it really was a problem. It's not an easy conversation to have with parents, telling them their child might not be fitting in or it's not the right placement. No nanny in their right mind would have the awkward conversation unless it's really an issue. I would listen to them, or at least take the kid by yourself for a few visits and see what they're talking about.[/quote]
