While I can see myself feeding a child Cheerios w/out thinking twice, if a parent brought it up to me, I wouldn't lie about it. I would just admit it and say I wouldn't do it again.
The fact that she is lying makes her a dishonest nanny. And a dishonest nanny is never a good thing. Fire her. Imagine what else she is hiding. |
I sometimes sneak some goldfish crackers to the toddler I babysit. I never thought about allergies and such, but it's a good idea to ask his mother I suppose. |
Cheerios, goldfish crackers and juice are junk "foods". Parents and caregivers who care about the child's health, will not offer junk to eat. |
