[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cell phones, texting are a normal part of everyday life.  Get used to it and you are ridiculous to say a child could be killed if a nanny texts.  You cannot stop texting.[/quote]

Yes you can.  I am a nanny and I have never once texted anyone in the 15 years I have been working.  I accept and make calls to my employers and no one else during business hours.  You are clearly have a problem if you think it is impossible to keep your mind and eyes on your charges at all times.

A bunch of silly, silly girls on this forum who have no business working in any field but especially not child care until they grow up.  [/quote]
What do you do when your charges friends parent calls or texts you about a play date ? What If music class gets cancelled and you don't get the call, email or text? What about school closures, a child getting sick or hurt at school or a friends home ? I have gotten so many of these calls, texts and emails over the years. I also need my smart phone to do my job to check my email and for gps. I've had older charges go home on the bus with friends who then I need to go pick up and on the fly I need to use my phone to find the house. So many situations. Yes these are all work situations but it can add up to a lot of phone use. None of it personal. But you say you won't do that, you only make and receive calls from your employers. [/quote]

Stop your nonsense.  First, OP's child is a newborn and not apt to get many play-date invitations until he can hold up his own head.  And second, you can make all those many work calls on your lunch break.  There rest of your post is total nonsense.  [/quote]
