[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I brought my child, my NF never asked me for a discount rate. They said in my reference letter that they could not have found better care for their baby.

Both parents were physicians. I provided care for two years, when they moved to Europe.[/quote]
Of course they could have; you without your child would have been better.  You with your child is second best compared to you without the child.[/quote]
Not in their opinion. See how narrow minded you are? Not all intelligent parents think that being the only child is a plus.[/quote]
If they wanted a second child, they would have birthed one.  Besides, it's easy to find child company without the hassle of nanny with child. It's not like small children are in short supply. [/quote]

There's a huge difference between going to a playdate or activity versus growing and learning every day with the same child.[/quote]
Of course there is - a playdate ends after an hour. If the employer's child and a nanny's child don't get along, then what?

Besides, it's not "every day", now is it? Nanny jobs end. That child's presence is temporary. [/quote]

It's every day the nanny works, which may be 6-7 days a week.  Yes, it is temporary... as are a share, daycare, preschool and school...  Yet nobody says that because they are temporary they don't provide only children with an alternative to the bond/learning that happens with siblings.[/quote]
