You sound paranoid.

Do you want to be videootaped 24/7 and not know for sure who is watching? It can cause anxiety.

You realize most public buildings, many private buildings - restaurants, stores, etc. have cameras.

I agree. I did what people suggested and hired an experienced seemingly kind woman who abused my kids. I was suspicious pretty quickly because of things I saw. She ignored them and stuck them in activity seats for hours. They screamed and cried and she dragged one out of his seat roughly because she couldn't hear the person she was on the phone with.

I agree. Not with cameras but I caught a bad nanny feeding my baby and another baby with the same spoon. Nasty b. Fired on the spot.

Like you wouldn't feed your baby from the same spoon that fell ... Bunch of hypocrites

And I think suing you would be a good use of my time.

Even if I put cameras that are visible?

If you don’t trust your childcare person change it. If you are a paranoid person in general stay home and don’t have someone else watch them,
