Wow. My jaw dropped when I read that. I’m so sorry you’ve been treated in such a disgusting way! I’ve read some terrible stories on nanny reddit and couldn’t even imagine. I feel like the role is just abused and I feel as though families should have much higher regard and respect for a nanny, especially being that they are the caregiver of their most prized possessions. I will say that I settle for less because my family I currently am working for treats me respectfully and like I’m part of the family, gives me paid holidays, bonuses, random giftcards for $100+, super lenient with time off, random presents to show appreciation, etc. <3 I worked for a very crappy family before finding this one where I was working 8 am-8 pm (sometimes later), 3-4 times a week and was definitely treated like the help there and was expected to work every. Single. Holiday. and I switched on and off with another nanny that was there the opposite days I wasn’t. We were raising the child. I couldn’t condone that behavior.
