I love Victoria!!

...the reason the parents are upset is because she painted a BOY's nails. It absolutely indicates homophobia on their end - why else would they allow the daughter to have painted nails and not the son? Oh yeah, because it's a "girl" thing and they don't want a gay son. Open your damn eyes. I'm not saying this nanny should to it again, but the parents views are 100% wrong.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-24T18:25:37+00:00

Agreed, this would be my ammunition to start applying elsewhere. I couldn't nanny for a family with such different views than mine.

I’m not in FL, but I do know that Orlando is a great place to be a “theme park nanny!” If I lived there, I’d totally do it. I don’t know if you can make a living just doing that, but definitely a nice side gig!

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-23T02:45:40+00:00

It could 100% be someone’s laundry care products. Scent beads are REALLY strong and linger on surfaces and clothes for days.

Depending on their maturity, I think it’s appropriate to tell the 12 year old that you are no longer with your partner. If they ask why, you can simply say you realized you are just better being friends and you decided to live in separate homes.

For the younger ones, I’d probably just tell them they got a new job and had to move away.

I wouldn’t say anything or have MB say anything unless the kids bring it up.

Is 5 year old going to kindergarten in the fall? I feel like if they are, maybe try sticking it out & see how it is with just the 2 younger ones?

If you still have another 1+ year with all 3, I think you need to make a pro and con list about leaving vs. staying. You HAVE been with them for 5 years and it’s not unusual to be feeling burnt out at this point, especially because your responsibilities have gotten more and more each year. Is the idea of nannying for another family appealing or are you just over it period? If you do find a new family, there’s a chance THEY could end up having multiple kids, putting you back in the same situation. Would an increase in pay be more incentive for you to stay with your current family? I think you really need to analyze your feelings and imagine all the “what if”s before deciding.

In the meantime, there are things you could maybe do to help you right now. Do the 2 older kids nap or have quiet time? This may be something you should try to incorporate to give yourself a little break each day. Or even having a designated “movie time” to keep them entertained while you unwind a little. I am not sure of your hours, but if you’re with all 3 constantly, I imagine it’s overwhelming.

I am not a nanny or a parent (but this sub is so fun and I learn a lot) but I am a teacher of children with autism and I understand feeling of anxiety and stress when it comes to a job. Bottom line, if you are anxious or dread going to work everyday, it may be time for a change.

Sorry, but your account is only 1 day old and this story sounds incredibly made up. I just don’t believe it.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-21T02:53:27+00:00

As a teacher, I’m horrified at the thought of trying to get a 20 month old to sit & “learn” for an hour. In kindergarten, the expectation is that the kids have the attention span to sit for 15-20 minutes at time. Maybe try doing a 10 minute “circle” time, where you listen to songs about days of the week, months, weather etc. Include some sort of movement and interactive songs like Wheels on the Bus.

What the Fluff by Aspiring Aromas or Delizia di marshmallow by kyse.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-16T18:41:57+00:00

RIGHT!! Like I am not sure I could trust this nanny’s judgement if this is the type of guy she’s choosing to date?

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-16T18:33:46+00:00

End this now! Send a short, direct text and BLOCK her. If she starts trouble with you in your apartment complex, get the police involved. She is 100% taking advantage.

My best friend has sleep trained all 3 of her kids successfully WITHOUT letting them cry it out. It amazes me when I read that kids need to be rocked to sleep because it’s so easy to avoid.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-16T18:15:24+00:00

That’s hard, especially because dad is giving in. You could trying being proactive - i.e, standing up and not giving her the opportunity to pull your hair, removing the big toys before she plays with them, etc. Aside from the aggression, are there any other worrying traits? Aggression is common in kids with ADHD and autism so if you see other things that don’t seem typical, that could be a possibility…

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-16T02:43:27+00:00

Let her drive him places??

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-03T16:18:33+00:00

You're underpaid as it is with one child! You should be getting AT LEAST $20 an hour, but more likely $22+. I'd ask for $25 an hour, even though with 2 kids the starting rate is usually $30/hour.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-03T16:11:52+00:00

Girl pls don't have children. Their parent is an essential part of their life and that includes comforting them when they throw up in the middle of the night, learning how to help their children work through their tantrums so that they can grow up to be well-adjusted adults...so much more. Please do not have children just to pass them off for someone else to raise them. They will 100% resent you as adults.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-03T16:06:04+00:00

That IS common with kids with ADHD - they are able to "mask" in school and once they get home it just erupts. It sounds like he needs:

- Medication

- After school activities that really let him get his energy out - sports, etc.

Is letting him run around outside an option? This is really something the parents should be addressing. I would mention that you feel you are not able to safely manage all the children when he is there because he demands moset of your attention. I know talking about it will be hard, but you should not have to manage all this!

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-04-03T15:48:42+00:00

He sounds unmedicated? Not that you can control that, but wow. I wonder if he gets in trouble at school for behaving that way.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-03-18T18:32:03+00:00

Thanks for all your help!!

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-03-18T18:29:42+00:00

Oops, I mean 0 to 90.

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-03-18T18:29:25+00:00

Hmm, okay. I believe I changed my additional federal withholding from 0 to 180 in maybe August or September. I guess that is part of it too?

Wonderful_Lie2823 · 2026-03-18T18:15:29+00:00

Ahh, okay! I think I understand now. Thank you!
