[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Update - my husband stopped her from [b]carrying the baby, in the bouncy chair, down the stairs[/b]. She also told me she was napping when the kids napped - rather than picking up after them, or tidying the kitchen from their meals. The two older ones are in school half day and then nap after lunch so the only time all three are up is for the 2 hours after naps at the end of the day.

Thank you to the pp giving pointers on the feedback conversation. That's the piece that I struggle with - how to start the conversation. [/quote]

This would be the confirmation I needed to make the call you're leaning towards anyway OP. This is exactly the kind of scenario that it wouldn't occur to you to tell the nanny not to do, that she would reply "but how was I to know?", and that you would have just hoped for some common sense and basic sense of safety would prevail. You can't cover every single dangerous act to be avoided - it's just not possible. At some point, you have to be able to trust that this person has some sense and will exercise good judgment. Now you know that this nanny is not going to be that person for you. I'd thank her for her time, pay her out for the week, and start up interviews again over the weekend. [/quote]
