[quote=nannydebsays][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If a family actually changes nannies that much, then there must be something fundamentally wrong with the family.[/b] Or they must be rich. I heard Mariah Carey on a radio show last year state that she does this. And she didn't even bat an eyelash. Such a diva. Lol.[/quote] Or there is something wrong with the nanny, or the nanny had a personal emergency, or people have relocated, or childcare needs change, or a multitude of other reasons why a family might employ more than one nanny in a period of time. Not all situations (and even fewer nannies) are perfect and sometimes a change needs to happen. [/quote] If a family reports that they have had 8 nannies in 3 years, then the FAMILY is the common denominator and the problem stems from their behavior. Maybe they just can't screen well, or their hiring practices stink, or they start job creep upon hire, or they are hard to work for because MB/DB act out their personal issues in front of nanny, or they talked a lot about how they discipline and then nanny discovers it was all a load of baloney and they let their kids rule the house, or... Yes, nannies can also be the issue, but most families might have a SINGLE problem nanny before they fix whatever led them to hire poorly and get on a better track. And Mariah has said she switches nannies all the time so her kids don't get attached. Lovely parenting tactics there.[/quote]
