[quote=Anonymous][quote]Let's face it, the main reason MB's dislike nannies with young children is that they want a nanny whose entire sole focus is THEIR child only. They don't want her going home to their own child whom they miss and adore. They don't want her to have a real life outside of their family or any other obligations, hence the whining about "part of the reason to hire a nanny is for the flexibility" BS.[/quote] No, bitter nanny, MBs don't have the time or bandwidth to want to thwart or be jealous of another mother going home to a child they miss and adore. It's weirdly paranoid of you to think they don't like you for that reason. They don't want to deny you your real life. They are only interested in you doing your job. Whether you believe it or not, flexibility IS why people hire nannies over other childcare options. Some MBs feel that a nanny with small children would face challenges that would interfere with her ability to do her job, or she might require extra accommodations that bring undue hardship and faced with a choice between a nanny who has challenges that need to be accommodated and ones who don't, they'll choose the nanny who can be there and do the job. It isn't about you. It's about the job. Personally, I don't care about a nanny's personal life. I don't care if she has a partner or kids...not my business. If she says she can do the job and does it, all good. But I understand parents who are wary, especially when nannies think it's ok to ask for unprofessional perks, like bringing their child to work.
