[quote=Anonymous]You were very wrong for yelling at your nanny. Would you want your boss screaming at you for a situation that was beyond your control? She was right to tell you that it was inappropriate for yelling at her. It sounds like she took the respectful, adult way of dealing with an unpleasant situation. You might learn from her example.

As far as stressing you out...it was after the fact. Why stress about your preschooler being picked up late after the child had already been picked up? You could have handled the situation much better by calmly asking your nanny to please call you in the future if she's going to be late picking up a child just so that you're aware. Should she have mentioned that she was late at the second school? Yes, but I hardly think it's grounds for firing.

You're out line to suggest that she doesn't put your children first. She does when she is on the clock...as she should be doing. She is under no obligation to put them first outside of work hours. Your nanny has every right to put herself and her family/husband first outside of work. If you wanted a nanny who was willing to attend all child functions outside of work hours that should have been communicated at the time of the interview. [/quote]
