[quote=Anonymous]I think you should call the other family back to save them the trouble and heartache of being in the same situation. I've also dealt with bad childcare situations and the pattern I see in what you describe looks a lot like what I've learned is a huge red flag: deny/lie, defend, and deflect/turn around back to you & your faulty parenting. It often is recognizable in much more innocent issues, like if you ask about the frequency of diaper changes and the nanny's reaction is deny ("I don't let the kid sit in a dirty diaper"), defend ("I change the diaper six times a day. I don't know what's causing this rash!"), and then close with deflect & blame ("It's these poor quality diapers. You really need to buy the organic ones instead. They're so much better than these cheep ones. I don't know why you buy them.") If you ever see this kind of crazy, blown out of proportion reaction to anything mundane, then you know they're lying about not only that but just about everything else. Sorry you went through that OP. [/quote]
