[quote=Anonymous]I posted on another thread, but was told to post here, so here goes:  We think our nanny stole a large container of Thomas trains.  I am posting here with the hopes that we do not only receive responses from indignant nannies, but hopefully receive responses from employers who perhaps have been through this, or something similar.

I am not sure how to handle the situation.  The trains were put away for DC, in a rarely accessed part of the house, completely out of the way.  This happened a while ago; nanny had stopped working for us when DC started school, but we were reluctant to blame her, and wanted to be certain it could have not been anyone else.  No one else had access to the area where the trains were kept.  The trains were one item we were saving, to divide up amongst DC when they have children.  We do not make it a habit to save things for DC, but found that the trains were extra special to them.  In addition, they were many and are pricey, so whomever took them knew what they were doing.   I would hate to call the nanny, out of the blue, and tell her about this; and also feel she might believe she has no obligation to us now (I could see that point).  WWYD?

I am well aware this is a concern of first world problems, but the trains were quite an investment, and we had specifically put them away for DC.  It is heartbreaking to see them gone, knowing how much DC enjoyed them.   [/quote]
