[quote=Anonymous]When we hired our nanny, absolutely everyone told us to TEST her by coming back home earlier, dropping in in the middle of the day etc. We did not do all this, but looking back, I think we should have. It helps to build trust. This OP tested her, and that is just fine. The mistake was to confront her after the first time, from now it will be harder to know. If she is lying, she will be harder to catch moving forward. If she is not, the relation is ruined. I would have tested again, and if it turns out the same way, let her go. We have in our contract that lying is reason for immediate termination. To the question, are nannies behaving different while parents are not around? Of course. They chat on their phones, maybe even sleep, or order stuff online, or cook meals for themselves, or empty your fridge or use your cosmetics. It is human. This is their job, not their calling, and most of them do it because the alternative jobs would be at Dunkin, or Target. [/quote]
