Dear Nanny in the (new) silver Chevy Blazer (Westchester County),
Please slow down! We have many children under 6 in the neighborhood as well as a deaf child. You have been asked two times by two mothers to control your speed as you drive down the street. The next step is to publish a picture of you (in your employer's car) and post it to this website.
Thank you,
(Yet) Another Mother
thats sad that someone taking care of children is putting them and other neighborhood children in danger and obviousley has no regard for it. you should post her picture and then let the parents know about this before someone gets hurt! maybe you should call the police and ask them to post an officer in the neighborhood for a few days. better safe than sorry. good for you for not being afraid to speak up, you could save a life because of it!
ReplyDeleteWhy not just talk to the employer? Or, leave an anonymous note?
ReplyDeleteSimply speak to the employers about the speed. If she is over the speed limit then there is the police. I hope this is not a case of needless paranoia. There is no need to threaten to post the nanny's photo .... what would this resolve? Won't she continue to speed if she is so inclined? Maybe the woman drinks too much coffee and is hyper.
ReplyDeletewhat town? that would help alot, i have a silver car and don't know if it is my nanny or not, westchester is pretty big.
ReplyDeleteRead all the comments under "A question for other mothers" listed below. It's all about bad nanny driving.
ReplyDeleteCall the cops..report the situation and get over yourself!Obviously if she has been talked to twice..whoever did the talking did not do the job!Oh,yes,the anonymous website should really scare her into slowing down! Meanwhile.. while you make idle threats..some ones kid could get hit!Good greif.. or just walk over to your neighbors house and grow some!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletemaybe the stay at home moms are trying to deal with the demon nanny while the working mother is busy "working". Many moms dont care aboutt he kind of nanny they hire, so long as she shows up everyday.
ReplyDeletea sad commentary on American priorities and the mental condition of America's youth.
to the mother with the silver car-is it a new chevy blazer? do you live in a neighborhood with alot of children under 6 and a deaf child?
ReplyDeleteKnow your nanny!
Working mothers might have to work out of necessity - to feed said child.
ReplyDeleteWhen are you going to do something about it? When she runs over someone? The time you took to sit and write this you could of been talking to the cops about checking up on the nanny driving skills but instead you choose to write about it, do the right thing and go to the right people.
ReplyDeleteTL
and what praytell would the cops do about it? set up a sting? a stake out?
ReplyDeleteGet the license plate, and bust her.
