[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Christine, before you head out tonight, I just wanted to chat quickly. First, I think you are doing a great job with Larla.  She seems to really enjoy your presence and you are teaching her so many new things.  We are so happy that you are becoming a part of our family.  One quick thing - and I am not sure exactly how to say this because I don't want to risk offending you - but the perfume that you wear is a lovely scent, but for whatever reason even after I give Larla a bath at night she continues to smell like the perfume and I miss her amazing baby scent so much. I know, I probably sound a little nutty about my baby, but it's one of my favorite things in the evening is just to sit with larla and enjoy her baby stage and her smell and cuddle. Would it be possible for you not to wear perfume on days you are here helping us? [/quote]

I’ve been a nanny for 15 years and I can tell you truly would not want to hear this paragraph. It’s just silly and has nothing to do with my job performance. If your nanny is kind and reliable and fun, focus on that. Perfume doesn’t have anything to do with job performance. If it clearly gave your baby a rash etc. that is one thing. If not, I agree with those who suggest letting it go. You’re asking a person to change their personal grooming habits for your preference. It’s not appropriate. [/quote]
