OP never even came back. This was probably a fake post.

Do the woman a favor and fire her. Yes, the pill on the floor is a problem. So is needing to ask for advice online for how to handle it.

"Nanny, I found this on the floor in the baby's room. Do you know what it is?" If it's hers, remind her to be far more careful with things like that.

Also, who else looks after the baby if nobody else has been in the room since the day before?

If you trust your nanny, then the possibility that it might be hers exists and you bring it up and trust that she will get why this is a big deal and won't let it happen again. If you don't trust your nanny, there is nothing you can do to fix that. You can fire her, but that only fixes if the trust issue is about her attitude or past behavior. If the trust issue is about who you are as a person (and frankly "wr took it to our pharmacist to identify" leads me to believe this is the case) then you aren't going to be able to trust any nanny and ahould look into other forms of childcare where you can feel more secure.


I'm not sure what the answer is, but OP did say that they'd only had the nanny for a month -- how much trust can there be at that point?
