I would never post a picture or a child that is not mine, especially nude. In some cases that could be considered distribution of child pornography.

Got caught of. If I were a parent and my nanny did that. I would not only fire, but take legal action. That is irresponsible and can easily get in the hands of the wrong person. I would make sure my nanny would be charged with child endangerment and distribution of child pornography.

I'm on your side but I really really really don't think it's as easy as that. People take naked pictures of their kids all the time and it's certainly not porn. You'd probably have to offer up every picture you've ever taken off your kid and I'd there was one of them nude you'd lose your case. A naked pic doesn't pornography make. There's much more to it, there has to be out every parent since the invention of cameras would be convicted of kiddie porn production. Think about it.

Actually it's not that difficult depending on the states these nannies are in. Parents have been charged with child porn charges for bathtime photos of their kids that were just on thei cameras and film to be developed.
That was parents. These are nannies. These photos are being posted on line. These nannies could be in some hot water.

Yes it happens. I have been in groups where nannies regularly posted pictures of clothed and unclothed charges. One group I am no longer a member of and the other group no longer exists.
Some nannies don't think.

And if facebook isn't responding to the reports you report to the next step go to the police take it to local news if you have to. No reason for those pictures to be posted. None.

You should report it OP. Completely inappropriate.

You have to wonder where parents are finding such irresponsible sitters.

MB here. Glad you report these, OP. We put in our contract that our nanny is not allowed to take or send pics of the kids or our house and I would be beyond livid if not only they were taking pics of our kids nude but posting them online.

I would actually speak with a lawyer about that. Such a huge violation.

I mean, I think that's great. I am gobsmacked at how many appear on my FB feed, which I spend a few minutes looking at a few times a day, so in very happy to hear that's not everyone's experience. I have a lot of nannies on my friends list, maybe that's why? Or maybe I just know a lot of stupid ones.

I don't want to out myself by name, and I think saying which groups removed me (after I explained to them why I reported specific photos) might do that inadvertently - I'm pretty sure the mods read here. I will say it was two of the largest nanny groups on FB, though.

Well, INA to the rescue, PLEASE. Please demand that your members refrain from online nude postings of their charges. In fact, nannies should have written consent of the parents before posting ANY online photographs of their charges.

Where are all those lawyers and agency owners on the INA board?

I can't believe they haven't already addressed this issue with their members.

...with nannies posting nude photos of their charges. THEY CANNOT CONSENT. How is this not completely obvious to absolutely everyone? Would you want YOUR nude body posted online without your consent? No. And a child's body belongs just as much to them as yours does to you! Even leaving aside issues of 1) the picture will exist online forever and 2) once it's posted no one can control who - which perverts - access it, it's a basic matter of respect for every human being's bodily autonomy. The right to say no. The right to decide who you show what to. Let these precious children make those choices for themselves, please.

I will continue to report every naked child photo I see, no matter how many nanny groups and nanny "friends" I have to exclude (or be removed from, since apparently some nanny groups value naked child photos above mature discourse regarding the (in)appropriateness of taking such liberties with someone else's nude image). Particularly children you are paid to care for, though I don't think parents have a right to do it either.

Guys, there are a million cute moments in the day. If you have permission to post pictures, just pick an adorable clothed moment. It isn't hard and your friends will enjoy them just as much if not more.
