[quote=Anonymous]To me, the breakfast issue depends on when the start time is.  If start time is before 7, allowing the nanny to drink a morning smoothie while starting the day is reasonable.  If it's 7 or later, there's no excuse for not taking the time to take 5 minutes at home to eat.  Either way, sitting down to eat breakfast just as the baby is waking up and taking 20 minutes to finish is ridiculous.  She knew when the start time was when she was hired, if she wanted to eat breakfast at work every morning, she should have asked if it would be a problem while interviewing.

As to the lateness, that's different.  Unless there were unforeseeable circumstances AND she had planned ahead but was still late, twice in the same week of work is unacceptable, and it doesn't matter if it's the second or 152nd.  Combining that with never being ready to work on time and eating breakfast after starting... You need a new nanny, OP.  A professional nanny will be ready to go on time everyday, at most she will drink a smoothie while starting the day with the baby, and she will make sure that she has extra time built in to her commute so that rush hour traffic doesn't make her late most of the time.[/quote]
