Of a parent wants their nanny to drive their children's the parents provide the automobile. If they cannot afford another car then kids stay home. Cars are expensive items and an employee should not be expected to have her car trashed for your children.

I would agree with you except for the rare instance when the nanny car is unsafe to drive for the day due to a flat or other unforeseen malfunction. Then Nanny Deb's rules apply.

So what do you want if nanny has a flat? I'd think she'd call AAA.
