[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why the hate for nannies and babysitters? I have seen some amazing nannies over the years. At worst, i sometimes see some of the foreign nannies clustering with their own geographic group (like, there's a bunch of west african nannies at our park) and ignore the kids a bit while they are in their strollers. But honestly, i don't think that's the end of the world. I think kids should be reminded sometimes that they are not the center of the universe (and certainly, lots of sahms are guilty of the same thing). Your kids are a lot older, so this isn't ever a risk. In any event, if you seriously think all nannies are not to be trusted, i'd seek therapy or a different job. [/quote] No one is hating on nannies or babysitters except for OP. But somehow she's ok with having her kid cared for others 12 hours+ a day. She's going to have a heck of a time finding a part time sitter who's willing to sit in a library with a tired kid for hours a day. [/quote]
