[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are also spanish speaking nannies who are fantastic, and fluent in English as well.

Our nanny immigrated here, learned English, became a citizen and has helped raise more than a dozen children.  I have never-ending respect for her work ethic, her determination, her experience, and her capabilities.

I'd want her in my (or my kids') corner over a small minded, judgmental American who is barely literate in their native language and somehow still thinks they're superior every single day of the week.

Good God can't you people read? I said a true nanny has a command of the common language and can communicate clearly. I did not say English must be her first language. Nor am I referencing Hispanic nannies specifically. There are lots of languages spoken by the feaux nannies I'm talking about. I just don't understand how some mothers hire women they can't communicate with to care for their child. How did you interview her? What are her child rearing views? Can she communicate her discipline strategies to you? Can she even read your written instructions? My employers ask for my advice on issues all the time. Could you do that with your nanny? What good is her "expertise" if she can't communicate it to you?[/quote]
