[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is very difficult when you have to leave a charge - I know.  I am sorry, OP.

Please ignore the nasty posters.   Any good nanny feels a loss when she has to leave a charge.  Give it time, OP.  [/quote]

Did you read what OP did? How she responded to the parents and her assertions that she knows better than they do what's best for their son? That is nothing like the sadness I felt when saying goodbye to my former charges. Painful, yes, but I certainly didn't lose my temper. We are not being nasty we are being honest. OP is not cut out for nannying if she thinks that getting attached to a child means acting like she did when the job ends.[/quote]

She might know what it better for their son than they do.  Not everything we we do is perfect and right.  I am an MB and I don't have trouble seeing that.

I don't think not being about to go on vacation or buy new clothes is a reason to pry a two-year-old from this nanny and start him in daycare.  The parents should have started daycare when he was an infant or waited until three at the very least.[/quote]

+1  Another MB here and motherhood doesn't make you infallible.  Two is a bad time to start daycare and the nanny probably knows her kid better than she does.  And the nanny having been a preschool teacher gives her more credibility.

The only issue is that the nanny loved her charge too much.  That is a problem I would love to have.

I am sorry, OP.  Are you in the DC area?  [/quote]
