[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, as a lot of nannies said in the previous thread, the insulting part here is that Mb feels that because I am only the nanny (who spends 40+ hours a week with my charge), my input isn't needed or wanted and anything the doctor has to say is for her ears only.  For me, it wouldn't be about the time, but it would be a serious wake-up call that MB does kot view me ad a valuable resource and a partner in raising her child, but as a babysitter.  My attitude towards the job would change, and I might start looking for a family that will be happy to accept all the skills I can offer.[/quote]

While I definitely respect you for defining your bottom line with regards to what is acceptable to you in your job, is it possible that your MB not inviting you is not a personal reflection on you but more about how she feels about boundaries? Some people consider medical information private and for family only. That doesn't mean you aren't a critical caregiver, it just means she feels like some things are private. If she learns something from the doctor that would impact your job, she would tell you, of course.

Boundaries can be healthy in any working relationship.[/quote]
