Right because OP has provided details to make her boss recognizable? Oh wait, she didn't. Don't be a bitter nanny just because you have a miserable life and are jealous another nanny seems quite happy in her job.

My MB had a miscarriage I felt really sad even though I hadn't known she was pregnant. They were at the hospital practically all day. She told the kids(2 &5) she was sick so they made her a get well soon card and we bought her flowers, I cleaned and made dinner.

I sincerely hope your say gets better.

You sound like a very compassionate as well as caring person in general OP.

I would keep my condolences short and sweet.

A simple "I am so sorry for your loss.." will suffice for now.

I am sure your acts of kindness will speak volumes.

You sound lovely. She'll appreciate everything you have done. That was really thoughtful.

As someone who's had a miscarriage, just say you're sorry and leave it at that. You sound like a caring person.

Why?

I think it shows she cares.

OP, I think what you have done speaks volumes. If you want to say something just say "I'm so sorry." and leave it at that, but I don't think it's necessary.

You'll also have plenty of chances to say that tomorrow or the next day. Your quiet thoughtfulness I am sure will be hugely appreciated.

What your doing is way over the top. Why is she at the hospital? How far along could she have been if she didn't even know yet.

Yes, condolences are needed. Be brief, tell her you're sorry, and maybe offer to arrange dinner delivery for the rest of the week.

Very thoughtful of you. I don't think anything more is necessary. Maybe a card if you think about it.

OP here. That's what I was thinking too. I don't want to make her talk about it.
Thank you.

My MB had a miscarriage today. She didn't know she was pregnant and it was super early, but it's still just awful.
She and DB have been at the hospital all day and I have cleaned the house and arranged delivery from their favorite restaurant for dinner.
Should I say something to her or just leave it?
I've never been in this situation and want to do the right thing.
Condolences or no?
