[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here... I've resisted responding so far but this is getting silly.  I have a legal nanny, who is paid a good wage, gets 3 weeks paid vacation, bonuses etc.  We like her and want to keep her, so we do our best to treat her well!

She understands a lot of English, and I understand a lot of Spanish, so in general, we have no trouble communicating.  In this case, though, knowing the word in Spanish for "choking" vs. "gagging" is pretty advanced.  So there is a language barrier here.  I wanted to make sure she could review a resource in her native language.

Re: the CPR class, I paid for her to attend one 3 months ago.  After I posted this, we talked about what happened more, and she said in prior CPR classes, they recommended a mouth sweep.  I don't know if they specifically said NO MOUTH SWEEPS in the last class or just focused on what she should do.

In any case, there's just a lot of assumptions and judgments here.  And I am finally frustrated enough to respond!  But I do appreciate those who took the time to provide helpful responses.  I am grateful![/quote]

[b]Sorry - you are still an idiot.  Both you and non-English speaking nanny should have known that if the baby/child is coughing YOU LEAVE HIM ALONE.  NO ONE EVER RECOMMENDED A MOUTH SWEEP FOR A COUGHING CHILD/BABY.

AND you are NOT paying a good wage and she is not legal.  Cut the crap.[/b] [/quote]
