I get this OP. Having a nanny is like having another person you’re responsible for. Totally feel you.

Over the past 10 years she’s had a major surgery, a job loss for her spouse, and an IRS audit that we ended up helping resolve. I’m just glad to be done with this phase...


So happy she's getting away from you.

Even though those situations made my job much more strenuous, I wouldn't consider it a burden. The nanny-family relationship is a unique intertwining web of professionalism and personal circumstances.



+1. I cannot imagine ever feeling that my employers or my charges were a burden I wanted to feel free from. I sat in the hospital with my charge nearly every night for a week while she underwent heart surgery; helped them move houses twice; dealt with my employer claiming she was going to divorce her husband and so much family drama.

But I love those children and will never do the happy dance when this job ends.

So ask Jeff. Highlight the posts you think are written by trolls and ask him. He can figure it out fast by their past posts.


Nah, that’s why most parents stopped coming to the nanny forum and professional nannies like Nanny Deb.

We both feel the same. It's really sad to see this Ugly comment; the way that you talk about the person who have loved and take care of you kids so much and for a long Term. I am speechless. What horrible Mom you are.

Every woman with children in my office always bring their problems to work. Obviously, none are professional so I am going to institute VA new rule of no family talk, no personal phone calls, no medical appointments without two weeks notice.

How fortunate that your children had this living, kind, and gentle woman in their lives for ten years because you, their mother, have no redeeming qualities.
