I have had families who showed up early without letting me know ahead of time and I suspected they were doing it to check up on me.

Aside from the house being a disaster, they came home to a happy child playing with a happy and engaged nanny so I guess it wasn't so bad.


What can't you clean up as you go? So suspicious. I would
never text the nanny 20 minutes before coming home.


Not the Pp
But give me a fucking break. Kids make messes and if you have two kids who are different ages and you're trying to keep them entertained all day things get messy.
Especially babies you clean it up they go right behind you and destroy it. You aren't alone with kids often are you?


She does clean up. Where did she say she doesn't?

NP here, I watch a 2 and 3.5 year old and we keep the house very clean. I'm never worried about it looking like a disaster if someone were to come home at any time of day. I'm not a housecleaner or anything for them, just have the kids put their things away. A baby shouldn't make much of a mess and its your job to clean up.


She specifically said she leaves the house a filthy mess and requires MB to text her when she's on her way home so she can ignore the baby and quickly tidy up.


I can't even imagine how unhinged you are to have read PP's post like this. Maybe talk to a professional.

I don't see anything wrong with a parent coming home unannounced. I view it as it's their home and their kids they can show up anytime they want . They won't catch me doing anything wrong.


It wasn't that she came home unannounced, I don't care about that. The weird part was that she would sneak in a side door or a back door early when other times she'd use the main door. Acted liek she wanted to catch me doing something. There were lots of other red flags.

Maybe they had reason to suspect the nanny is dishonest. My husband and I accidentally left out cash once, and when I got home the table it was left on had been cleaned and much to my surprise the cash was gone. A month later, I purposely left out $10. It disappeared while our nanny was there so we fired her. I'm sure most nannies are honest, but there are some who are not.
