Make it easy for her - not that she has to come back to your house

Op here.

Yes, I did offer to pick it up and she declined, saying she would bring it to me. I said she could leave our belongings on her porch.

So I made a complaint to care.com and her profile has been removed. Oddly enough, I received two calls for a reference for her and I told them both what happened.

So overall the financial losses to her are greater. I’m sure she will find some work, somewhere. But we had to change all our locks and then replace the car seat. We won’t make that mistake again.

And how are you not going to let that happen again? Not have a car seat for your child? Not let the new nanny leave the house?

Congratulations, you vindictive witch, you succeeded in ruining this woman’s livelihood over her not rushing to return property that you should have asked for before she left. Your family must be so proud of you.

Please feel free to find any job that allows you to keep company property after your employment ends.

She made her choices to not return our property. She is going to have to deal with the consequences of that. I’m sure other parents would want to know if a nanny they’re going to hire caused her former employer to replace locks and car seat once she left for breach of contract in failure to return the family’s property.

Families deserve to know

Nannies also deserve to know that you are a controlling employer and tell every nanny they know to steer clear of you.

This outrage is ridiculous. The MB offered to PICK UP the key and carseat, making it very easy for the former nanny. There are plenty of reasons why the key and carseat might not have been returned at the time of termination, that's really not the issue here. If the nanny would like to be treated like a professional, he/she needs to act like a professional and return the employers property. This happens all the time in business! People have to return keycards, parking passes, cell phones, laptops etc after termination and they typically comply.

How do you know that she didn't leave it on porch and that a porch pirate stole it? I have a feeling this isn't the first nanny that you've fired for no reason not will it be the last. You appear to be an extraordinarily difficult person.

You are a real bitch. I hope it all comes back to you in spades.

How long has it been - weeks or a few days? Your move sounds a little excessive and mean-spirited, but then again I don’t know what performance issues she was fired for.

Grow up and act like a professional. Is any job, it is expected to return the employer's property. Do you think someone who gets fired from an office job gets to keep the laptop, building keys, etc.? Good luck wth that.

Perhaps this family should have acted professional as well and collected the items they wanted on the spot rather than expecting a fired employee to bring them back later. Good luck with that!

This is so bizarre. Did you not fire her in person, OP? It sounds like that is where the problems started. I have never worked anywhere where anything had to be returned AFTER you left. Everything is returned at the time that job ends. It sounds like you fired her by text or something. Not a good idea when the person has your house key!

You should have gotten YOUR keys and YOUR car seat back when you fired her and before she left your house. YoU f-Ed up.

Holy hell, Lady, learn to take some personal responsibility!

I seriously doubt anyone with a triple digit IQ will believe your rant on a reference call. You’re a real piece of work.

Karma will not be kindvto you.

Whatever you put in my car is mine to keep or toss. Nannies should not have to use their cars to schlep your kids

So we purchased a new car seat specifically for the nanny. Which obviously I will not do again. It was a $280 loss. To change the locks it’s going to cost around $200.

And no, I would not withhold her pay. I’m just annoyed. I put it in our contract that she would return our belongings and she agreed to it in writing. I guess I was hoping she would honor the contract.

So your child is not going to have a car seat in the nanny’s car? Or you aren’t going to let the nanny drive your child anywhere?


I would have given her more time, OP. You fired her - she isn’t going to knock herself out rushing back at your convenience to return items you should have retrieved before her leaving.
