The the mother or nanny who takes her daughter to tennis lessons at the tennis center. Why are you so shrill? Why are you always barking about homework and berating the girl for not hurrying? (She gets her stuff together faster than anyone else). Do you not notice that other mothers and nannies bring water or juice for their children? If you don't stay to watch the lesson, why don't you ask her about it? Why do you arrive and look annoyed and then tell her what she next has to do, "you need to get home and finish that Native American project before". Blah blah blah. I feel so horribly for your child or the child in your care. She needs a break. I could but don't want to out you more specifically because that would not make me feel very good. But take a look at your child/charge's face. Look around. The other girls are laughing and smiling, why does yours looks so worried and exhausted? If you are a mother, get help. If you are a nanny and it is your job to take care of this child, please quit. This is tough to watch every week.

I juust wanted to add that in person I think I am capable of differentiating between a nanny and a mother. I wrote the above post very carefully though (after reading so many comments hypothesizing the bad nanny was in fact the bad mother). But I am virtually certain this is a nanny and I hope someone knows the mother so she can say something directly to the mother about the way her daughter is being treated.
Some mothers will start in the spring time evaluating handbag options for the fall but will hire the first slug that comes through the door to take care of what should be the most precious part of their lives. Odd & uncool.
barnes and noble court street brooklyn seems to be a meeting place for nannies,,,,i was appalled to see a little kid run away and almost go down the escalator by himself,,,,caught in the nick of time,,,the nanny said, i could have been in big trouble
