[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nanny here. Have you previously told her not to text unless it's an emergency? As a nanny it can be difficult to know just how informed  (if at all) MB wants to be during her workday. I've had some MBs who wanted me to check in several times a day with updates, and others who didn't want any texts unless it was a true emergency. I would try talking with her one time about it, and let her know that you trust her judgement and would prefer not to get texts while you're at work unless it's an emergency.[/quote]

This!

I've had employers who wanted a running list of texts to inform them of each new thing we were doing, when we left the house, arrived at the activity, left the activity and arrived back home.

On the other hand, I've had employers who didn't care where I took the kids and didn't want to be texted at all because they trusted my judgement and weren't worried about something happening.

If you don't discuss, she has to make assumptions.[/quote]
