[quote=Anonymous]Our new nanny in general does a good job (although reading and rereading the below I'm not even sure at this point), speaks great English, except that in the first month of her employment, she has already managed to:

*leave for the day while leaving the door to the house open (not just unlocked, but OPEN) and the kitchen faucet on, and never apologized when I mentioned it to her nicely and kindly reminded her to check on these before leaving next time.  Literally texted "OK" and that was that
*leave food on the stove to the burning point until I had to run down from the burning smells to salvage what was left of the food
*"forget" to do laundry one day
*use time to buy groceries for family to do personal grocery shopping and lie about it
*take 3 trips to the grocery store to buy a simple cheese item for the children - try #1: she says they don't carry the cheese and that she asked  (they have plenty of it when i called and asked); try #2: buys butter instead of cheese; try #3:  finally manages to buy the cheese while complaining how hard it was to return the butter for over 15 minutes in my home office while I am trying to work
*tell me periodically that "YOU NEED to get XYZ from the grocery store" for the children, although it's part of her job to do this (I work full time)
*tell me periodically that she put the laundry in but it's not dry, and that "YOU NEED to check and put it in the dryer when it's done"
*fail to put out dinner item on the table for the children sporadically
*break a valuable gift with my initials on it, not tell me about it, and when i found out, merely say:  oh yes, that broke when i was wiping the table (not a word about being sorry)

Looks like i need to search for a new nanny pronto.  this one has ZERO respect for her job!!  Ugh!!!
