| You would like the nanny to separate from your kid? Wow you're a sad pathetic person. Stay home and raise your own child if you can't handle other people living your DC. Horrible awful parent. Atrocious. |
| I've been with my nanny family for 8 years and I've been invited to all three kids birthday parties, except the first year. That was a family only party and I didn't pout or cry or quit because I wasn't invited. Starting age 2, they had bigger parties and invited me. Even if the parents didn't invite me (which they do) the kids invite me and would be so hurt if I didn't attend. You might be as to get away with this for the 2nd bday, op but starting age 3/4/5 etc your kids will start inviting his nanny (whoever it is because for sure the one you have now will quit soon because you are crazy). |
| Of course you should invite your child's nanny! Why is this even a question? This is the person who spends more waking hours with your child than anyone else does and she deserves the consideration of an invite. |
Agree. Only a selfish insure parent would neglect to do so. It's a clear red flag to the nanny. |
Typical nanny nazi rant. God, I'd rather stay home than have a crazy twit like you spend time with my kids. |
Nazi poster is not welcome here. Please go away. |
+1 I am an MB and I beg you to go away, too. Crazy, melodramatic women like you make all MBs look bad. |

I am actually worried that this will happen to me this year - that I will not be invited to my charge's birthday party. I have asked MB is passing what she has planned for his birthday and she told me that she hadn't decided. But the day is getting closer and no mention of it.
Honestly, I will be very hurt and angry if I am not invited. I get very sad thinking about leaving my charge (I get tears in my eyes even thinking about it) but I can't see how I could possibly stay if I am not asked to participate in a celebration of his birthday. |
| It would be slap in the face to your nanny NOT to invite her after inviting her last year. I know I would quit after a slight like this. |
you mean it would be a slap on the face to YOU. If you had read other responses you'd see not everyone is as immature as you. |
I am about as far from immature as anyone could get. I would be insulted and hurt - and yes, feel that it was a slap in the face. Please stop embarrassing yourself with childish name-calling. We simply disagree on this. This is an opinion forum and that is my opinion. |
|
I am actually stressing about not being invited to my charge's birthday party now! I know it will change how I feel about my employers and honestly have been a great nanny to their child.
It never once occurred to me that parents/mothers could be so insecure and petty. |
Please do not let it bother any of you nannies. If you cannot live with the parents petty decision then you can always quit. But it is not your charge's fault and he/she is the one who would suffer if you quit over this. I am a nanny and I work for stunningly inconsiderate people. I mean - it is shocking how truly inconsiderate my employers are about simply etiquette and common courtesy. (example - my husband died last December and they never did one thing - not even a condolence card. I missed no work since it was over Christmas week and they both said they were sorry once and have never mentioned my husband or my loss since. Yeah, I know - stunningly inconsiderate) But I love my charge and am devoted to him. That trumps all for me. Yes, it is a job and yes, I am well-paid but my devotion to my charge is what keeps me in this position. If I am not invited to his party, I will have a wonderful celebration with just the two of us on his actual birthday and give him my gifts. Big deal - I work for assholes but they have an amazing, loving and bright kid. |

If you think your child would want his nanny at his birthday party then invite her.
If you think you child would not want his nanny at his birthday party then get another nanny. Honestly, MBs - it is not about YOU. |
| No, of course not, it's all about the nanny according to this wild string of ridiculous posts. |
