[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The babysitter left me a voicemail saying her husband wanted to fix the mailbox and they were both on their way to my house. The DH came, looked the damaged mailbox and said would be back. After an hour or so I got a knock on the door saying a new mailbox was up. Part of me felt very terrible that they went through all the trouble despite me declining the compensation.

I would not have gotten someone to help me fix it that quickly so I was appreciative for the gesture nevertheless. I have a lot of respect for this couple for taking responsibility even when it was not required of them.

To be honest I would not have thought of her differently if she had not insisted on fixing the mailbox.  However, as a matter of principle, if I was to damage someone's mailbox or any other property I would pay for it. [/quote]

I think that's great OP.  It sounds like your nanny felt compelled to make things right, regardless of you declining compensation, because that's just the kind of person she it.  And it sounds like that's the kind of person you are also, so hopefully this means you've found someone who will be a great fit for you.[/quote]
