[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for your responses. Generally, seeing all those videos on the internet how some nannies are all the time on the phone, or not paying attention, etc. I've seen and heard lots of stories but I wanted another opinion. I don't know why is the problem to have a camera. If she loves her job and if she is good,she has nothing to be afraid of, right? You can never be sure what can happen and I want to avoid that. We can do background checks, we can call references, but we will never know until we see it.[/quote]

I encourage cameras because I want my MB/DB to see how hard I work with my charge and all that I am teaching him.  I also definitely encourage parents to show up at their child's daily outings to the park and library where most nannies are constantly on their phones.

However, the presence of the cameras was announced at my hire.  I cannot imagine how betrayed and distrusted I would feel if I discovered that they had hidden cameras.  Cameras are great when the intent is for the parents to see what their child is doing.  Cameras are insulting and an statement of distrust when kept hidden and secret.  [/quote]
