[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in a nanny share.  We are the hosts.  Our nanny regularly takes the babies out and about.  I work from home so I know when they are around or not.  This morning our share partner took her child to the doctor so she wasn't dropped off at the regular time.  My nanny took my child out after breakfast.  I didn't think much of it because she regularly takes him to playdates, the library etc.  My share partner contacted me asking whether our nanny was back yet.  I am guessing that our nanny told her she was taking my son out.  My nanny share partner needed to get to work and drop off her child.

Our nanny was unresponsive to our texts and phone calls for over an hour.  I just heard from her and she is on her way home.  How should I/we address the unresponsiveness?  She has a phone.  This is the first time anything like this has happened.  Generally, she is a very good nanny.

Should we just discuss checking her phone more regularly?  I am pretty disturbed that neither I nor my nanny share partner could get a hold of her.

I have so many questions. 
-Did the share partner tell nanny they had a doctor appointment? 
-Did the share partner tell nanny the approximate start and end time for the appointment?
-Did the share partner tell nanny they would be bringing the baby to her after the appointment?

Nanny should have answered your texts and calls earlier, but I think your share partner needs to communicate better as well. If nanny knew the answer to all three of my questions, she would have been home at the appropriate time. [/quote]
