If you don't think a family will be a match, then move on.
You don't need to come on here and complain like drama queens.

You give nannies a bad name and I am ashamed we share the same job

Maybe some of these families would have rejected your application as well because they felt how nasty you were!



Yawn... Are you done lecturing yet? Maybe you should jump to the thread about why MB's didn't offer the potential nanny a job... Lecture the MB about whining and complaining and giving all mothers a bad name.

Both threads were started by the same nanny troll.

LOL You are wrong, Sherlock, I started the first thread about why a nanny wasn't offered my position and I most certainly did not start this thread. I have enjoyed reading it, however, so thanks to the nanny who did start it.

You wanted to get out of paying OT

Different Families/ Interviews

You thought it was okay to pay me $350 a week for 45 hours, with an infant.

You let your daughter become a hoarder because it made her feel safe, garbage was piling in her room and you did NOTHING.

You told me I couldn't leave the house for the first 3 months and that after that we would re evaluate.

in the interview you asked me how I was about particular parents. Did I think I could follow instructions even if it seemed like a minor detail to me. YOU know your CRAZY and don't care!

Let's see-


Then there was the crazy mom who told me how she needed someone who wasn't going to run off when her kids spit on or kicked her. Kids were older elementary school aged with no special needs, so shouldn't have been spitting and kicking anyone.

The mom who insisted on scheduling our interview at 8:30 on a Friday morning in NYC. Then she left me sitting in the apartment for almost 2 hours (with 2 housekeepers) because she "forgot" about another meeting and didn't have the courtesy to tell me before I got there.

The mom who told me how healthy her children ate and how we were on the same page about nutrition and food. Then when I did a trial day for them the children had cupcakes and sprite for breakfast, chocolate milkshakes and french fries for lunch and then pizza for dinner. The real kicker was when the dad reprimanded me for not giving them another cupcake for snack.

The family who's 2 cats got up on the counter several times while I was there and they just laughed about it. I like cats, but I can't take them drinking out of my glass of water every time I turn my back.

You wanted to work but didn't want anyone else taking care of your kids. It doesn't work that way.

Your dd was too coddled. You were too paranoid.

You thought you had a say in what I did during my non-working hours. You didn't need care every day, but wanted me available "just in case." Even when I was scheduled "off" on the schedule for a week at a time. I was supposed to keep myself available in case you were too tired or stressed out to look after your own child. You didn't want to pay for that availability.

Because you wouldn't give me the wifi code so I could play on dcum.

Family 1: Because you were only willing to guarantee 20 hours per week.

Family 2: Because you were only willing to pay $15/hr for infant twins plus a long list of house cleaning chores during their nap.

Family 3: Because you told me the hours would "vary slightly but mostly be 10-5 with a few early starts and a few later nights," but when I got the actual schedule every day was different and several were scheduled for 1-9pm and 7am-4pm back to back!

Family 4, 5, and 6: Because your children acted like hellians and you refused to parent them.

I had the exact same thing happen to me! These parents were so "laid back" (their self-description) that they didn't seem to care that the stench of fecal matter was permeating the room we were in as their son proceeded to defecate for the longest time behind a chair!!! He was about four.

I could not get away from these freaks fast enough!

Reasons why I didn't accept past positions:

Dad was hitting on me.

There wasn't chemistry between us and I didn't think we would be a good match. Our styles were different.

You didn't want to pay me a decent salary for someone with my background.

You were too concerned with your own life and not your children's life and they were little more than status symbols to you.

You were a trophy wife and those are the worst to work for.

I will not work in a dirty house. Period.

[Anonymous]

Because you wanted me to work 10+ hours everyday of the week!!
I am not a robot!!

[Anonymous]

Because you warned me that DS had a tendency towards violence and would flee from the house.

Because you lived in a shoe box and had unrealistic expectations for a toddler.

Because you continuous delayed my interview, moved it to 9pm and then proceeded to talk for 2 1/2 hours straight.

Because you couldn't quite decide on a schedule.

[Anonymous]

Because you said you don't believe in child-proofing any part of your house. You said your baby needs to learn what not to touch. Is this that babywise stuff?

[Anonymous]

Because you treated me like a criminal and demanded my middle name, maiden name, addresses and employment for the past ten years, then told me that if I didn't want to provide this information that I was hiding something, and that you were hiring a private investigator, so if I was hiding something, you'd find out.
