[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think you are missing the point here: you have asked your previous family “can I bring my mom to work?”. They said OK. You are assuming here that the family was happy/did not have an issue because they allowed it. What previous posters are saying is that your assumption might not have been true. Your family might have gone along with your request because for them it was the lesser of the three evils: letting your mom come, having you upset because you can’t socialize with your mom, or having you take PTO/quit which would have resulted in less of quality of childcare. Have you given this a thought? How do you know that they we’re not saying behind your back “I’m spending all this money on my nanny, and she has her mom here for 3 months so how do I know that my kids get 100 percent of attention”? The simplest question: what if your mom falls and hurts herself in their house? Who is responsible for that injury? When an MB hires a nanny we want life to be easier for US and OUR FAMILY. We want zero drama. Nanny’s mother introduces a possibility of drama, no matter how nice the mom is, how helpful and how nice the nanny is... when you are hiring a new nanny this is a major minus towards that candidate... and for $30/hr, there are probably quite a few qualified candidates for the new family not to risk the drama. You came to this forum with a question. This is one of few times both MBs and Nannies here agree: don’t do it, buy Mom a city guide and make the weekends count! You don’t like this answer. Go ahead and bring Mom to the interview. [/quote]
