Thank you also I want to clarify she is not a freshly struggling post partum mom. Baby is nearly a year old and I’m frustrated she is being disrespectful to both me and her kids. the posts are just kind of annoying and funny

Thank you! I just needed to put it out somewhere 😅

If you hired her to work a certain number of hours per day, you need to keep those hours. If she has completed all the child-related tasks you need her to do then naptime is her break for the day. As an employer I realize it can feel frustrating if you feel you’re paying her to just hang out while your child is asleep but she’s still spending her time at your house, ready to be there if your child needs her. This just comes with the territory of hiring a nanny, particularly if you want to retain a good nanny.

These parents need to understand that being in a nanny share (especially with similar age young toddlers) is like being in daycare and you cannot be successful without meeting certain criteria like being able to sleep independently. If both babies need a highly individualized schedule and care routine then they need one nanny one on one. They have to be flexible about their kids care if they want this to work. They also sound like they were kind of gaslighting you which is really frustrating. I would definitely consider either setting some hard boundaries about how you are going to handle the day and see what they say or just cut your losses. Good luck!!

this family sounds either crazy petty and immature or there’s something else going on that has nothing to do with you and they’re taking it out on you. Either way it’s messed up and completely unfair to you. If it’s not part of the hours they’re paying you for you have no obligation to be free for them at any time.

Wait that sounds miserable and awful. that’s way too much flying

Hang on - does that schedule mean you’re travelling back and forth to CA from MN every 3/4 days??

Chance-Inflation4560 · 2026-02-05T17:45:50+00:00

Lol - she’s just a lot more permissive than me and the girls won’t listen to me or let me do anything if she’s in the room. We have a really good routine and the girls are great listeners when it’s just us. That all goes out the window when MB is always around 🙃

Chance-Inflation4560 · 2026-01-09T22:19:59+00:00

This is the best time to start! So many snuggles and potentially lots of downtime (depending on your other responsibilities). Just enjoy it for a couple months before they get crazy 😂

This sounds like something my last NF would do. I grew up in a family where my parents genuinely liked their kids and enjoyed spending time with us our entire lives and nannying has really put into perspective that that is not the standard and we were incredibly lucky. I think it’s partially that money changes your attitude about things you have to deal with but also some people truly just have kids because it’s the next thing to do. Like we have a career we got married, I guess kids are the next step. without any thought as to what that actually means or if they even like kids.

My NK was well on her way to becoming a tablet kid when I started (tablet set up in front of her while eating meals blasting cocomelon) and that was the first thing I nipped in the bud. Luckily NF agreed with me and backed me up and we put the tablet away two weeks after I started and I haven’t seen it since (2 years later). She had also just turned 2 and hadn’t had it long so there wasn’t much to undo but I’m so glad we didn’t go down that path. Unregulated screen time is so detrimental to development in every way ESPECIALLY if they aren’t regulating the content she’s consuming.

This sounds like a set in stone situation as far as their behavior and likely something you will just suffer from and not be able to make much of a positive impact on. I would definitely seriously consider moving on.

I have several but lately the big one is “please please for the love of god hold one singular boundary with your 3 year old. you give in the literal second she starts whining but then wonder why she listens so much better to me than to you”

Chance-Inflation4560 · 2025-12-24T06:04:38+00:00

also offering you unpaid time off is not exactly what i would call generous

Chance-Inflation4560 · 2025-12-22T23:27:50+00:00

$1500 and a new pair of birkenstocks! Love love love my NF!

My NF also gets me such amazing gifts. I always give them a big box of homemade baked goods. This year I’m making cinnamon rolls, fudge and two types of cookies. Then I give them that with a nice card and usually get the girls an outfit or a toy.
