[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am surprised with all the comments on nannies side. I am with you OP. If she lied about this she probably lied about other things too. We had a similar thing happen with a nanny and ended up firing her. Except our son was much younger and could not tell us anything. Our rule was the nanny had to text us where she was going and be back for his regular nap time. After a while she was dragging him all over town on her personal errands and was skipping his nap if it didn’t suit her. She disregarded our explicit instructions on many occasions, and it took us a long time to figure all this out. You absolutely need to tell the next family.[/quote]

I'm not a nanny responding, I'm a mom of two and I am not on either side.  I'm on the side of get over it.  The nanny is no longer in your employ.  If you are asked for a reference,certainly be honest.  But then ask yourself these questions...Did nanny take, what you consider, good care of your child? Would you hire her again?  Would you have fired her over this offense?

I think you are upset because you are indeed wondering if she lied about other things that you didn't catch.  So you are really made at yourself for being not being more careful in who you let care for your child.  Maybe some self reflection is in order.  Otherwise get over it.[/quote]
