[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one likes to hear bad news about their kid everyday even if it's true but you're supposed to be on the same team and help come up with answers - is the kid hungry? Tired? In need of more opportunities to work on social skills? If there's not a consistent system of discipline, maybe check out 123 Magic from the library and ask the parents to review it and let you know whether they think they could get on board with a program like that or if they want to suggest a different method.[/quote]

+1 Be a part of the solution, Nanny.  Don't just report the problem.  Suggest ways that your charges behavior could be improved and don;t forget to mention any cute/sweet thing he has done that day.  [/quote]

Yes to all of this.

You and the parents should be on the same side.  Obviously parents shouldn't be so defensive, neither should nannies be adversarial.  You should all be working together on managing behavior/discipline/rules/boundaries/etc...

If you and your employers aren't able to function that way then you're not a good fit for each other.[/quote]
Where do you find that mythical good fit?[/quote]

I found mine by pure luck!  [/quote]
