Another Camera Query.....Ugh!!.......

[Anonymous]

You know how if you have a boyfriend who is always distrustful of you?
Like asking you all the time who were you with??
What time did you get home?
And of course the one who always thinks you are cheating on him any time you two are not together?
The logic here is that he must be cheating on you if he is so suspicious about you.

Same logic over nannies and cameras.
If a family is so untrustworthy of their nanny, then they must be hiding something major from her.

You have basically posted the exact same thing over and over and over again, PP, on various threads. It is tiresome. Your logic is seriously flawed.

??? The most important issue is the safety of the CHILD. If a child is hurt while in the care of the babysitter who is going to get blamed? The babysitter. However, the cameras can accurately depict what happened. I am not as keen on nanny cams as I am visible home cams. Nanny cams ARE sneaky and will not DETER bad behavior.

I concur.
In fact, after finding a nanny cam you risk your nanny getting a little passive/aggressive which will not end well.

Would you really want your child alone in the company of someone who is resentful at her boss??
The answer is a definite no.

Just have a camera free home and you will not have to deal with wiretapping laws, uncomfortable employees and a revolving door of nannies.

Camera and it’s laws bring too much complication to a job.
So simplify everything and go back old school.

Or hire a nanny like me who actually wants you, my boss, to see how hard I work all day and encourages cameras because I am not addicted to my phone or neglecting your child.

A lot of you nannies need to grow up.

Part of you growing up means you'll learn that not everyone wants to potentially be on social media as they go through the days nurturing a child. Good luck to you.

Wow.

So you are saying that just because you prefer cameras on you and other nannies do not,
That those nannies need to “grow up.”

Being mature has absolutely nothing to do with how one feels about being recorded on a daily basis.

You sound extremely judgmental, think you are better than most & largely brainwashed by your employer.

Why must you have to show your bosses just how good you are as a nanny??
Are you that insecure that you feel you must continually prove to this family how awesome you are?
If so, you should feel much better about yourself on your own.

We've had 3 babysitters in 4 years. None of them ever complained about our cameras. Keep in mind after the 'getting acquainted' period, reviewing the cameras is rare. If we aren't caring for our child, the last thing we want to do is sit and watch our child on the camera. We aren't actively watching. If you want to pick your nose or look at your phone we aren't going to object or make you EVER feeling uncomfortable. You will forget the cameras are there. We do. We have them on always, we have friends over, family over etc. When we have date night, the last thing we want to do is look at our child with their babysitter. There is no law being broken. We aren't 'wiretapping'. We have visible cameras in our own home. The LAW IS ON OUR SIDE. We would never, ever, post anything on social media or youtube etc. That would be a violation of trust. Keep in mind most parents that have cameras in their home are going to be more mature and realize the impact of posting anything to internet. Our employees have been loyal, we pay them well and don't micromanage them. Our 2 babysitters that we use currently have been working for us for 4 plus years.

If you have a family that doesn't treat you with respect, pays poorly, and makes you feel uncomfortable--DON'T WORK FOR THEM.

In 2018, I would be more suspicious of a home that doesn't have any visible cameras than one that does.

I'm not suspicious of a family without cameras, but I certainly am more careful. I'm more comfortable with cameras because I know that I will never have what I do with the kids questioned, and there will never be abuse charges. Unfortunately, kids get bruises and bumps while playing, no matter how careful their caregiver is. That's life. But not all parents understand that until they actually see it on film.

How many cameras follow you to the park or playground, Troll?

It is a myth that being recorded while working as a Nanny will exonerate you if the child you are caring for gets injured, etc.
Perhaps something the parents say to their Nannies to brainwash them that the cameras will benefit them!

They will not.
There are times when you are on outings & your charge may fall down and get a bruise on his or her head.
Abuse/neglect needs to be proven vs. unproven.

You just met him, barely know him yet are expected to give your consent for him to watch & listen to you anytime he wants to.
This is just sick.

Ask the Mom if she could just have access to the footage.
Let the Mom know your concerns and I am sure she will understand completely.

No one would feel comfortable w/a stranger Male having video/sound access to a brand new Woman in the house.

Especially today w/the current #metoo movement going on.
It’s best for the man to not be involved in watching a stranger who is Female.
Err on the side of caution.
ALWAYS!!

Plus these cameras get hacked just like computers and it could be some creepy, pedophile watching the Nanny from across the street.

Security is the biggest issue in not setting up home cameras.

The above poster is 100% correct. There needs to be limits in the written contract how the video footage can be used on social media.

This is important. You don't want to see yourself on YouTube without your written permission. There are lots of irresponsible and spiteful parents out there.
