[quote=Anonymous]Our nanny, who has been with us for about 6 months, did nothing at all to mark my daughter's birthday. She was 5, so had been talking about it a lot and we had also mentioned it to our nanny so there is no way that she didn't know it was coming. I was really not expecting a big gift or anything like that, honestly just a card would have been fine (although previous nannies have all given gifts to all of my children - and in fact, the 5 year old's previous nanny sent her a card and gift for this birthday). Our nanny joined us for birthday cake and celebrations so she was included in our family's celebration of the day. I didn't even hear her say "happy birthday" to my DD, although she may have done. My DD didn't seem to notice or care, but I am upset by this. FWIW, we made a big deal out of nanny's birthday - we baked her a cake, got her a nice gift, kids made cards, we made banners and put up balloons, etc, and she seemed really happy with all of that. I guess there are some people who don't celebrate birthdays, but even if adults don't, kids definitely do. What do you think? Am I being unreasonable to expect this?[/quote]
