[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your friends used her for years with no problem....so could you, but if you don't feel comfortable get rid of her.  Simple.
It could be that she lied about her education.  Big deal.  Actions speak louder than words to me.  But if you want someone that has the creds go ahead.
Your friends trusted her and she never let them down.  To me that's something.

are you the nanny by chance?

actions speak louder than words? exactly! lying to your employer about your background and experience is an action and speaks louder than any nice words the nanny may say. the problem is not that OP wants the piece of paper attesting that he as a MIT graduate for a nanny. he wants somebody who is honest about who she is, and that he can trust, and not a liar. how can he trust her from now on? poeple who lie once (especially substantial lies like these), lie all the time whenever it it convenient for them.

More than that, it shows very poor judgement on the nanny's part. She should have known that this information would turn up on a background check and was willing to gamble that most parents wouldn't check up on her. Those are not the long-term, critical-thinking skills I want my nanny to have.[/quote]

That's what I don't get...how can she not think that this would get revealed somehow, esp after signing a background check release?!![/quote]
