[quote=Anonymous]Reading though the lines here, I think OP has control issues. Nannies are not slaves, especially college aged students for whom this is not a career opportunity but supplemental income. OP, it seems as if there was a deep amount of planning to have multiple non-professionals piecemeal a full-time live in nanny job. I am not surprised that the part-time nannies would entertain/accommodate another family who is nearby. The positive relationship that your kids and the neighbors kids have is priceless, and could be lifelong. Given that you have no family nearby, I would think that you’d want to steward the relationship with the neighbors, rather that place intentional barriers to them connecting with your family. There needs to be some deep reflection had on your part. Your kids will age out of this phase sooner than you think, but your neighbors will still be there. The price of icing them out could really just be too high. [/quote]
