[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I guess I wonder whether most people would actually consider a new nanny over something like this. My son loves her and we don't have complaints other than this, except for some minor ones because nobody is perfect. And no, we cannot afford to buy a car for her. Is it worth having a conversation with her about my concerns or is that overstepping bounds? [/quote]

I don't think it's overstepping boundaries. Safe, reliable transportation is a must when dealing with children. You're right, she's wasting alot more money putting it into her old car, instead of just purchasing a newer one. My cousin would always put loads of money into junkers, only to have them break down. All the money she put into cars the past 5 years could have gotten her a new car, if she didn't waste her time and effort.

Have a chat with her, tell her you understand her car troubles but that you're concerned. She might get ''annoyed'' but these are your kids and she needs to realize that as part of her job transporting children, she needs to keep their safety in mind. This is not only with the cars mobility, but her not speeding, etc. If she's not willing to purchase a vehicle, or if she can't purchase a vehicle, it might be time to search elsewhere. Your children might like the nanny but ultimately, their lives are worth the change. Kids are lovable, they will get over it and like the next nanny.[/quote]
