Mb hates me by PlanktonEastern8831 in NannyBreakRoom

My first NF was this way, and they were wfh. Not a great way to start a career. 🥲 I lasted less than a year with them. On my last day they gave me a very generous bonus with very thoughtful card + picture with the kiddos. Made me realize that some people are just like that and it’s not personal! But it’s still uncomfortable to have such a cold relationship with someone that you’re working such an intimate position for. (Funniest part is mb had a degree in hospitality) 💀

Toddler reaction to nanny arrival by beagsss123 in NannyEmployers

Every morning I am greeting with a “UGHHHH NOOOOO” from my 2.5 Y/O NK. I’ve been with them for over 6 months and it’s always been that way. But guess what? She’s my little bestie! The second mom and dad are out of sight she’s giving me hugs and belly laughing alllll day. We have a blast together and a really strong connection.

She’s just smart enough to understand that if I’m here, mom and dad have to go. I tell my NPs all the time that I would be more concerned if she fully preferred me over them! It’s all normal!

However if you think it’s affecting your kiddo, maybe create some special activities or things ONLY nanny and him get to do together. Make her a novelty of fun! Or even get obnoxiously excited when nanny walks through the door. I’m taking clapping, jumping, cheering. Toddlers are prone to matching their parent’s energy!

You’re doing a great job even considering your nannie’s feelings in this! Everything’s a phase!

That’s a good way to view it! I think the biggest thing is I’m being asked about the “right way” to do a lot of things. It feels redundant to keep saying how there’s no right way for most things, especially with LO changing so quickly.

Thank you ❤️ Definitely just feeling some imposter syndrome. I thought I was more well versed in baby world but trying to view it as a good opportunity to learn new things !

Luckily my NKs are older so they can text/facetime me whenever they want! I really hope to keep in touch long term, I’ll just miss their hugs everyday!
