And then, three years later, when busted about it, she is so feckless as not to have thought up a better story about where the photo was taken? The whole thing is unbelievable.

Long story short - she took my son to her new apartment (boyfriend's apartment) 2 days in a row and her boyfriend's mother watched him all day while she moved. She said sorry and that she should've just taken those days off, but her boyfriend suggested that idea to her so she could keep her PTO days and have them paid out (we pay out anything not used). I told her I was upset and that I probably wouldn't be the best person to use as a reference since I would have to tell her new family the truth about what happened.
Former nanny said she completely understood and said sorry again. I told her good luck and thanked her for taking care of our son for 3 years.
Thanks all for responding! Made me realize I should just talk to her instead of wondering what really happened.
Yeah that's pretty bad. Sorry OP.
+1 I would be livid if my nanny left my small child with someone I'd never met without my permission. Good thing you asked her what really happened and that she was honest about it.
+1 Yikes!!!
Not buying it. You’re either a troll you’re making this up to justify your initial post. No way the nanny would tell you all this at this point, even if it were true, after all this time.

My former nanny lives 20 miles away so what would be the point in going to her house to eat lunch? And yes, she's asked me before if she could take my kid to her house and I said no.
I forgot to mention the photos were dated right around when she was moving out of her other apartment. There were moving boxes in the photos so I'm guessing she brought my son to her house while she was moving.
And no she doesn't have newer references, her last day was a couple weeks ago. I would think another family would want to know something like this.

I’m shocked she was this honest.
She sounds like a basically decent person who made an irresponsible, inappropriate decision.
I was 100% anti-OP until I read the nanny’s explanation. Now I’m team OP. While the nanny get some points for finally coming clean what she did was so totally uncool. I would never give that nanny a good reference.
I was team no one and I’m still team no one. They both sound silly.
If that sounds silly to you, I hope you never do childcare. Because parents care who there small kids are left with.
