[quote=Anonymous]I have been working with my current family for only 8 months now as their full-time nanny. During the interview process I was told that the mom would be working from home Tuesdays/Thursdays until the end of the year (I started in July). Currently, that schedule has not changed and mom will occasionally work from home 3 days out of the week. This has made my job difficult because the baby who is almost 11 months is at the stage where she is upset every time mom walks out of the room which is often and I'm left to calm her down. This morning the 3 year old was acting up and he snatched a toy from his baby sister and I calmly explained to him that he can't do that and asked him to give the toy back. He flipped out crying and within seconds mom was upstairs as if there were a fire. This also happens a lot where mom comes in when I am trying to handle a situation. I have been a nanny for 5 years and in truth I don't know how to approach mom about my concerns without her feeling she needs to replace me or get offended. I want to express my concerns without making it seem that I don't want her around as I understand this may raise red flags if a nanny says to employers I don't want you around. I would appreciate any parent feedback or hear from nannies who have been in a similar situation. [/quote]
