Mb is making me nuts

MB and mom of 4 here. If I got more than a hint of the attitude you're displaying here, your contempt for me, and your clear feeling that you are the professional and that your job satisfaction is the most important factor here, we'd be parting ways.

I'm sorry this is difficult, but we all have difficult seasons in our jobs. You're coming off really badly here.

Pp here from page 1. This is one of the strangest threads I have seen to date here. Op came in here to just blow off some steam and ask for suggestions and got the advice she was looking for. I don’t really understand the snarky responses and where she is showing herself to have an attitude with the mother. Am I the only one that read everything (though it was a lot, no offense but you do use many words op) she said?

I’m sorry but as a mother with a new born I was too exhausted to be discussing things about Facebook when the nanny is trying to focus on the kids. It’s difficult enough for my husband and myself to keep young kids entertained and distracted all day. If anything I would relish in the presence of the relief and rest while she was there and try to help maintain the consistency of her position so I wouldn’t be hiring another nanny before I headed back to work.

Granted there are going to be some adjustments but honestly what’s wrong with having a moment of peace in a long day or minimal distractions if it’s possible?

Pp again, did you discuss the routine with your employer Op or at least the tardiness to school? Please update when you get a moment. I’m enjoying this dramatic thread.

How much longer will your MomBoss be on her maternity leave?

I know from experience just how tough these jobs can be, but if she will be returning back to work soon, maybe you can suck it up a bit more vs. quitting.....??

Hi and thank you for the kind reply. She was supposed to begin work next week but just received 6 more weeks. I’ve been praying about this and don’t want to leave at all and I really don’t want to leave my charges. I plan on doing what I can to stay. Our talk today left me feeling like it will be better going forward.

“Attitude” “Contempt” ???? LMAO well reading is fundamental ma’am.

Believe me there is no contempt. I certainly hope you a mom of 4, realizes how cruel it is to kids to tell them to go and be with someone else and once that other person finally calms them down, gets them distracted and happy again you waltz in so you can chat with the person about something not even kid related only to go back to what you were doing and the process starts all over again. It’s not my fault that seeing their mom throws them for a loop. They are kids.

I also don’t think some of you understand. She isn’t coming around to interact with the kids, she is coming around to interact with me while I’m with the kids.

I got what I needed and appreciate the posters that were helpful.

If I could hug you I would. Thank you I was starting to think I was in the twilight zone.
