Anyone else get fed up when MB treats you like a nobody? RSS feed

My MB does this quite a bit and it makes me pretty angry. I deal with a lot from her daughter who is very hard work and deserve some respect and appreciation.
Why treat your kids caregivers like they don't matter but expect so much loyalty back?

Why don't you look for another job? You'll find some family who appreciates you but you have to put yourself out there.

I like my nanny, and I consider us friends, but frankly, her job is literally what I do in my free time. And I do it better. In her free time, she seems to join a lot of clubs, go to a lot of restaurants, and watch a lot of TV, which is great and sounds like fun, but not something I have a ton of respect for.
My previous nanny was a catholic school teacher who had raised 5 children into adulthood. I did actually have a lot of respect for her, but we moved, and I ended up with not a lot of time to search for a new nanny and found someone more run of the mill. She sounds better than a lot of nannies on here though. At least she doesn't refer to my children as "difficult," and she seems to genuinely care about them.

Wow, you sound like a dream MB. Not.
Do tell me how your nannys personal life has anything to do with jer abilities as a nanny? Also, it's very different caring for kids who are not your own. Yes, you do the best job for YOUR child but could you be as great with someone elses?

Your nanny deserves better.

Is your current Nanny younger than you?

No offense PP, but your response about you doing a better job than your Nanny was pretty rude.
Plus why would you have less respect for someone who has different interests than you do....??!

Sorry but I just don't get you.

" Her job is what I so in my free time". You mean parenting and raising your child? That is what you should be doing 24/7. Your nanny deserves better.

I don't treat our nanny like nobody, but I don't respect her as much as I could because she does not do a great job other than treating my kid well. She doesn't listen well so will end up not following my instructions and treats her non-childcare duties like she's doing me a favor. She is way overpaid if all she does well and is willing to do well is interact with my kid. My kid will be in preschool this fall and I plan to let her go then, possibly sooner.

I totally agree it's jealously. I will not argue this. A lot of these new moms are so caught up in their job etc. Like trying to make it seem like what we teach the kids, and what we learned new about to child that they don't know or can figure out is not all that important lol like get over yourself !

Yeah why don't all parents raise their own kids 24/7?

OH WAIT

Honestly if you nannies think this insult plays to our mommy guilt or something you have seriously misread the room. I have a high power high respect job and I am immensely proud of my accomplishments and the example I am setting for my daughters. Staying home with them only models how to be an unambitious failure.

The only thing your daughters are going to learn is that you're very ugly on the inside. They will probably grow up to disown your ugly ass. I actually feel sorry for them!

At the end of my life, I will be PROUD I have helped raise wonderful kids all my life and been an important part of theirs.
Working in an office ... not the same.

You don't know what I do as a profession. I will be proud now and later.

My job as a PARENT is to model what kind of adult to be. Generous. Ethical. Fair. Empathetic. Competent. Civic-minded. It's not to change every diaper and cut every strawberry. My greatest hope is that my daughters are as professionally fulfilled as me--or more. I hope they devote their whole spirit to their work and reap the benefits.
