[quote=Anonymous]We have only had two nannies in the last 2.5 years(the length of our parenting lives).

Our old nanny was never once even one minute late (generally arrived five minutes early) in two years, always seemed to be in a great mood when she arrived and greeted DC cheerfully, was NEVER on her cell phone that I ever saw (and in fact her cell phone never rang when DH and I came home unexpectedly which was often) and always arrived in fresh, laundered clothes.

We moved here and our new nanny is generally late by a few minutes, is often sour or unexpressive when she arrives, does use her cell phone and receive calls occasionally, and has had the same stain on her jeans all week.

Our old nanny also never spoke about her private life even though we knew she lost her husband (he was only 55) during the time she was working for us.  Our new nanny does share a bit too much.

Our old nanny was our first nanny so maybe we were spoiled.  Are we judging this new nanny too harshly?

Both were/are paid in the $18 to $20 range and good benefits.
