[quote=Anonymous]If anyone reads this and has any idea who the family could be, could you possibly pass this on to them? I didn't want to post in the nanny forum because I doubt families will read it.

I went to Armistead Boothe Park in Cameron Station today and noticed a really inattentive and borderline abusive nanny/au pair. I think she was probably an au pair given her age and accent. Not a big deal that she was so inattentive, although the kids, especially the little boy, could have gotten hurt on the equipment and should have been supervised. She was on her phone almost the entire time not even looking up.

The part that really concerned me, though, was that she was ROUGH with the little boy. Any time she did look up, she would snap at him and often use force to pull him out of the way or something like that. He was not doing anything inappropriate and it was completely out of line. There was one time in particular that she wrapped her whole hand around his little upper arm before yanking him off the slide and you could just tell it had to hurt.. but she got inappropriately physical with him a bunch of times and it really concerned me.

I felt so badly watching this and keep thinking about what she must be doing to that little boy in private if she was acting like that in public with plenty of other parents and nannies around. She should not be around that child, or any child, based on what I saw.

If you know this family or know anyone in Cameron Station who might know them, could you pass this along? I am bad with ages but I think the little boy was around 2 and his sister was around 4-5. The sister had long brown hair with bangs and was wearing a pink portugal shirt. The little boy was wearing a neon green shirt. The au pair/nanny had dark hair and a bit of acne, and they had a red uppa baby umbrella stroller with them. I think they must live nearby because they probably walked to the park with the stroller.[/quote]
