[quote=Anonymous]OP I know you’re getting railed here, which has probably made you shut down but I’m wondering if you could look at this in a different light. Most people are seeking eventual full time employment and it sounds like it’s something your nanny is looking for so I actually think this could be an amazing opportunity for you both. As you said your nanny has been clear it isn’t a career for her and typically it’s hard to keep part time nanny’s for long because they eventually seek full time employment. In this scenario, you could end up having your nanny way longer (which you think would be good for your daughter) because she would have consistent work in the mornings when your daughter is in preschool. In addition your daughter has the extra comfort of someone she cares a lot for at her preschool during the mornings. This just seems kind such a win win to me. I hope you can try to open your mind to how this might work for your family and really consider your nanny’s needs. If she’s a part of the family like you say I think it would be positive for her to be able to fully support herself and remain in your daughters life longer and consistently. For the record I don’t think it was inappropriate at all for the preschool teacher to bring this up, especially since your nanny works part time. I wonder if maybe your worry about losing her led to an emotional response and frustration at the teacher but I think everyone here has agreed it was not out of line. [/quote]
