[quote=Anonymous]I'm genuinely curious about some of these responses. Is it really so weird to know about the nanny's personal life? Our nanny is relatively new to us (started two months ago). I exchange pleasantries with her daily so know (generally speaking) what she does on the weekends, who she travels with or to see, etc. I took a half day vacation a few weeks back because I had a doctor's appointment so ended up walking with my daughter and our nanny a half mile to the park and we chatted a bit then too. It's nothing overly personal but she talked a bit about her family, an upcoming trip, and what brought her to the area. I'm not looking to be her BFF, but I'm now curious why others know so little or don't care to know. Is that because the opportunity hasn't presented itself or because you intentionally shy away from conversation? Comparing it to an office job, I'm not best friends with my bosses either but they certainly know stuff about my life. [/quote]
