Son tells me Au Pair in Mean

[Anonymous]

Mothers please listen to your kids when they tell you something is wrong. Don't you have a nanny cam or a recorder??

My 2 year old son said to me he did not want to go to the caregiver at the kids club and he started crying when he sees her.
I investigate and found out that the woman was very mean to him and other kids. More parents complained about her.
Parents listen to your KIDS. STOP and listen to them, they are your most precious gift. Don't wait until it is too late. Good luck.

Nanny here, sometimes some kids are just crazy to handle...I have experienced some situation and left the job. So you have to get the story right before you judge your nanny. Talk to your nanny first and fi d out what is going on.

Aupairs aren't in it for the childcare, they want the US experience.

Sigh. This is not true for all, even most, APs. My current AP adores my daughter and is a total rock star. She goes above and beyond and the child care is just as much a part of her experience as the "US experience" as you call it. My child loves her, and has loved our prior APs as well. She will be in our lives forever, and I'm thrilled to consider her like family.

I've had live out sitters and nannies too, and my APs have all been as good, if not better, caregivers as the nannies/sitters (and I also loved my sitters). I was home for 3 years with my child before going back to work, and during that time I saw PLENTY of "professional nannies" ignoring the kids at the park, looking bored and disengaged, as they gossiped to one another. There are good caregivers of all kinds, and bad caregivers of all kinds.

It astounds me what a broad brush you use when painting your inaccurate picture of the AP program.

Astounding you have no clue what a "professional nanny" is.

Of course I know. I also know that merely putting the term "professional" there doesn't make it true or otherwise suggest the existence of actual professionalism. Just as the absence of the word "professional" does not suggest a lack of qualifications.

Of course there are bad days and bad kids, but showing a complete lack of empathy or concern for their safety is different. This just sounds like a horrible AP.
