This Nanny has it right!

If nannies come here to vent, of course the general impression is that we are all unhappy and whiny. People don't tend to vent about happy situations. Come on ladies, you're smarter than that. Anything to rag on the lowly nannies.

Seriously, look at any of the boards, it's people complaining. Moms, dads, grandma, grandpas, and NANNIES!

It's the same poster who constantly posts how "entitled" and "uneducated" nannies are, why are you on this board anonymous/OP? Either you are a nanny or you have one? Do you lack self respect or do you really hire someone you think so little of?

I'm pretty sure the OP is nanny chelle, which is weird but I don't mind too much. I "liked" her page on Facebook a few weeks ago. She's not the best writer and can come across as a know it all but it's nice to see another nanny so passionate about her job.

Whether the OP is the blog owner or not, I think the point of this entire thread should be that not all nannies feel a sense of entitlement, but MANY that post on this forum seem to. I think it's common to see here because many of us come here to vent or get advice from others who know exactly where we are coming from. However there are a handful of nannies that post here complaining about things that they have no right to complain about. Employers left the kitchen a mess for you? The time you spent complaining about it on here could have been spent confronting them or cleaning it up. MB comes home 5 minutes late a few times? Suck it up--it's 5 minutes.
I just don't see why so many nannies have SUCH a huge problem doing extras that really do not even effect their day. If the dishwasher needs to be emptied or filled, I'll do it because it takes about 3 minutes out of my morning. If I'm throwing a load of my charge's laundry in the washing machine and there's MBs laundry still in there..I switch it over to the dryer and finish it for her. Grocery shopping needs to be done? Sure, my charge loves going to the grocery store and I'm happy to help. I think some nannies forget that we ARE hired to make our MB and DB's lives easier, as much as you think otherwise. My job is to provide a safe and developmentally appropriate environment for my charge and I do a great job of that. I have such a great relationship with my employers because it is an equally fair work atmosphere--I do extra around the house to help them, and they are good to me in return. I don't EXPECT a giant bonus or extra pay for working an hour past my usual time one day. I don't need to be rewarded for helping make sure the household runs smoothly. I have a JOB. I don't feel entitled to shit because they pay me, and I am grateful to be employed. If you are SO DAMN UNHAPPY, QUIT!! Quit your job! And if you say you need the money and can't quit, then stop complaining. No one is forcing you into a job you hate, so it really is what you make of it. Do I have bad days? Sure... but again, it's what you make of it. I think the entitled/ungrateful nannies here WANT to be unhappy.
No one feels sorry for you. Stop being lazy or find a job where it is acceptable to sit on your ass all day.

End rant.

Hi blog owner!!

Hi lazy nanny!

Stop trying to pimp out your blog. You have horrible spelling and you come off as snarky and annoying.

I have to agree that while I did agree with what she had to say that her poor writing skills did jump out at me. I just don't understand why someone who isn't a skilled writer would have a public blog.

Hi blog owner!!

Hi lazy nanny!

Stop trying to pimp out your blog. You have horrible spelling and you come off as snarky and annoying.

I'm actually the poster of the above long-winded rant...and I'm not the blog owner. If you're truly that concerned about it I'm sure the moderator of the forum could clear up any confusion by checking IP addresses. So really...if you are that worried about it go ahead.

Hi everyone, I'm Nanny Chelle. I just learned of this forum after a new "liker" mentioned finding me through this forum.
While I'm flattered, I am not the person who made the first post.

Don't you have anything better to do than questions peoples' identities online? Get a fucking life! And really if you're that concerned about it--have someone check IP addresses! But I'm sure you won't because once someone proves your ignorant ass wrong you'll have nothing to devote your time to.
