As a nanny, you do realize most of the over the top posts are probably from one or two people trying to make either a) MB look bad or B) Nannies look bad.
Do you trust *your* nanny? No, than it's your fault. Don't hire anyone you don't trust.

I have 15+ years experience with all sorts of kids, you barely see your three under three 20 hours a week yet still act like I'm the biggest idiot in the world when I suggest what may be wrong with your DS, or that DD may need glasses, or that baby DD may have a lactose allergy. You ignore my advice, although you told me you hired me for my experience. You treat me like "the help", and numerous times have overrode me in front of your children.
I have honestly wanted to quiet so many times, the only reason I stay is because I honestly love your children. I said I wondered why they were such extravagant children, and I know. It's because of me.

Wow. As an MB, yeah, you are definitely making me grumpy about nannies. I manage to entertain my baby without TV on the days I'm with the baby, and you can too.

I agree! As entertaining as I think these confessions can be I don't think that us nannies are doing ourselves any favors by posting them. Already people in this board see us as untrustworthy, entitled, and over payed. Most of us are probably pretty great the majority of the time so why group all of our worst and most unsavory confessions here all in the same place, thus making nannies as a group look a lot worse than we really are.
Who cares what people on this board think? This isn't a job interview, it's an anonymous forum. I'm an MB and yes, I read things on here that make me cringe but I love and trust my nanny with my son-the most important person in my life. This board doesn't make me feel otherwise.

I would never hurt or neglet your kids but frankly think they are the most spoiled brats that I have ever encountered. I also eat your special chocolate that you keep hidden and let the children watch more tv then I should.
Please, you play this stupid "special snowflake" routine on all of the boards. I doubt you are a nanny, just trying to make us look bad.
