[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are thousands of other occupations for people with mental illness that do not involve long days alone with a child!

Why choose being a nanny?!  If you worked in a daycare or preschool, there would be other people around to keep an eye on you.  As a nanny you are alone.

No, I would not hire a nanny who was on either antidepressants or antianxiety medications - nor would I hire the bipolar nanny who posted above.  And I would have to fire any nanny who didn't disclose these vital medical facts about herself immediately.  [/quote]

You sound uneducated. I am another nanny. I'm on a benzo. My employers don't know, but if they asked, I would'nt lie. I'm on a very small dose and does not affect my driving or job performance.  I also have glowing references. What exactly are you worried about? Do you equate someone with occasional anxiety as someone dangerous? With people like you in the world, it's no surprise there's still so much stigma surrounding mental illness.[/quote]
