OP, luckily your kid is fine. I would pay for a refresher CPR AND first aid class, in Spanish, for your nanny.

Oh, please! It is hardly racism to expect the person in charge of your child actually speak English in an English speaking country. This is just one of the repercussions of the bargain-basement undocumented foreign nanny. I would say the same about an American nanny who doesn't speak fluent Spanish in Mexico.

You dumbass. The racism is insisting anyone who doesn't speak fluent English MUST be undocumented, despite OP saying otherwise, because you said so. As well as insisting OP is hiring under the table and all this BS +1ing like reading an internet thread made you a psychic. It is a common theme among sanctimommies on DCUM. You do realize that someone can be legal in this country without being a citizen, and whether you like it or not there is no requirement to speak English to be a resident?

Get real! She is a nanny who cannot speak English - do you seriously think she is here on a Diplomatic Visa?

And fuck off, PP. The whole "sanctimommy" thing is so played out.

If the shoe fits ...

You seem to have reading compression problems, or an inability to understand English as well. Perhaps you are undocumented? Her nanny isn't fluent in English, not the same thing. Regardless, there are tons of people legally in the US who don't speak English. Whether they should nanny is a different story, but the insistence anyone who can't speak English is illegal is stupid. Google "green card" or "TPS" for starters, and quit using your asshole to speak. You're a bad person.

+1 the racism is disgusting (NP here)

Wanting your childcare provider to speak the same language as the country she is living in is not racism, PP, it is common sense. Further, to make the observation that most non-English speaking nannies are undocumented is fact and not racism.

I am a Mexican-American and a "Dreamer". Both of my parents were here illegally and I was brought here at the age of six months. I know racism and assuming that a non-English speaking domestic working is not here legally is NOT racism - it is fact. You do undocumented workers and legal foreigners no favor with your "faux" liberalism. Employers in this country are taking advantage of undocumented workers in this country every single day and they are the ones who should be called out (like OP) and not the posters who are simply stating the truth.

Accusing OP of hiring an undocumented immigrant solely based on the fact that her nanny is not completely fluent is racist. Particularly in light of OP saying explicitly that the woman is in the country legally. Assuming that all individuals who don't speak English are undocumented is actually quite racist (lots of statuses can be acquired despite not having English, refugee or asylee status for one, or TPS as another PP mentioned). You are a dreamer, so I am surprised you don't have more understanding of things like that. I am not a faux liberal but someone who works in immigration and communicates with immigrant populations as a central part of my job. People who take advantage of undocumented workers are, IMO, just as disgusting as the person who assumes that every nanny speaking Spanish is undocumented, but they're both disgusting.

You are seriously equating someone who assumes that a domestic worker who doesn't speak English is equal to someone who underpays, exploits and terrorizes undocumented workers?!! You are truly ridiculous, PP. As a Dreamer I would far rather have someone assume my parents are undocumented than enslave them.

Obviously I would agree with that (I am the PP). But I am baffled by your not seeming to see anything wrong with broadly painting anyone who doesn't speak English as undocumented and how you don't see how that could create systemic and dangerous circumstances for both documented and undocumented immigrants due to prejudice. Why don't you take a look at all the police brutality against black youth to see the possible real and physical dangers of racism. Why don't you ask hispanic americans who have been jailed or detained or just brutally treated by police in Arizona because they didn't have their documents on them. Why don't you ask someone who struggles with English who is documented who can't get a job because an employer assumes they are undocumented, leaving them unable to support their family? Your personal history and my knowledge of the day to day experience of these individuals makes it really hard for me to believe that YOU are telling the truth about YOUR status frankly.

NP here and I have to say I don't believe OP either. I am sure she has an undocumented nanny. But - it is nothing anyone can prove one way or another so let's let it go.

NP here and I disagree. I would also assume that OP's nanny is undocumented based on OBSERVATION and FACT and not racism. No one is ever going to admit that they are breaking the law on an open website. I don't believe OP either.

What observation and fact? Are you privy to all the women at the playground's papers? Admitting to break the law on DCUM would hardly be dangerous. When everyone basically begged Jeff to identify the suicidal poster a couple months ago he basically admitted he had no tools to identify her. Its fine that you dont believe OP but claiming that you don't believe her based on fact is a lie. You have no facts. You have your own preconceived notions about the immigration status of childcare providers that don't speak fluent English. Negative preconceived notions based on someone's language/race = racism.

How are you fighting racist attitudes among minorities?

But every day, you practice so you're learning to speak better English, right? That's what matters most. You're improving all the time.

Calm down, PP. You are embarrassing yourself. NP here and the previous poster made an observation based on the norm ("norm" being the average) -- most non-English speaking nannies are undocumented. Take a breath now and stop taking everything so personally. I have excellent reading comprehension, speak fluent English and also assume that OP's nanny is undocumented. "When you hear hooves think horses not zebras."

Learn to accent the non-policically correct observation and don't allow other's opinions to upset you so much.

And someone on a Diplomatic Visa wouldn't be allowed to nanny anyway, English or no.
