[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She may be trying to do what is best for your child despite your efforts otherwise and nanny just wants to protect your feelings. Let your kid go and live and explore and grow up normal please. Give nanny and bonus to say sorry and let her do her job.[/quote]

That is patently ridiculous.

A nanny's job is to care for a child in the manner in which the employers instruct.

A nanny who lies about where the child is, and/or one who intentionally flouts the parents' explicit direction (as you're advising) should be fired.  [/quote]

A nanny's JOB is to do what is best for the child, as you can see in certain cases that would include calling CPS on a bad parent, etc. A nanny's JOB is not to blindly follow parents instructions.[/quote]

You are giving the most extreme case.  In this instance, the nanny was told NOT to take the child to any unapproved home by her employers.  She did not follow the instructions and should be called out for it the first time and fired if it happens again.  If you, as a nanny, feel the employer's rules are wrong then you quit.  [/quote]
