[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I insist on having this for every child in my care. While parents are available by phone most of the time, most people don't carry cell pho es into workplace meetings and my current MB is underground on the red line for 25 minutes. Not to mention how often cell phones die before people get home. Those slim chances that I would not be able to reach a parent is enough for me to feel I need that authorization. Unfortunately, I have had to use it in my 8 years as a nanny. I would advise limiting the authorization to life sustaining treatment if you are really unsure about the nannies judgement. Although that does not cover treatment to maintain brain functioning or bunch of other things... Are you sure you want to withhold that authorization OP??[/quote]

Drama queen.

You wouldn't be a fit for us.  You'd lose me at "I insist on..."[/quote]

MB here and I actually agree with the nanny.  I have lingering issues with my wrist because of a delay in treatment when it broke.  I would feel like the worst mother ever if my child needlessly suffered because I orDh couldn't be reached in a timely manner.  DC' nanny has medical authorization and along with the authorizations, has a few things we've listed as being important.  One of those includes pps face stitches done by a plastic surgeon example.

Maybe times have changed and I haven't kept up with it, but when they say they say they won't do anything for your kid unless it is an emergency, they mean life or death emergency.  Not what you might consider to be an emergency. [/quote]
