A match made in nanny-mommy heaven
posted in Child Care, Mom Rants |It’s been about a month since I broke up with my nanny. How am I doing, you ask? I’m just great. In fact, I think my new relationship is really working out - I’m in love.
I’m attracted to many things about my nanny. Her smile, hardworking attitude and the way she looks at my son have completely won me over. She’s helpful, honest and well, looks out for our needs as a family. Take my pantry for example. We’ve been at odds since my son was born. I wouldn’t take the time to organize it and it started hiding things from me. But my nanny intervened, and well, as you can see below, we are now getting along again. (FYI, I do NOT ask my nanny to do housework. This was ALL her. And, boy, did it ROCK.)
My nanny also realizes that I am a total neurotic freak-show stress case, so she has become an able secretary of my son’s day. If I can’t be there to see it, at least I can read it when I get home. Nanny, I’ll take a BM report over a new business report any day. Thank you. (If you want tips on baby scheduling, I charge. A lot.)
My nanny is also well-educated, having just finished her college degree in education. This means that she actually points things out to my son that I often overlook. “That’s Daddy, can you say DA-DA?”
And best of all, my nanny has a will of steel. She can meet the demands of my job on short notice, and most important, she puts up with ME. And it’s safe to say that nobody else does it quite as well as her (sorry, Mom). Guess only time will tell if our relationship stays on solid ground. Oh nanny, don’t ever leave me!! I’d die without you!!
