UES/Dunkin Donuts across from 92nd Y, NYC

Tuesday, October 31, 2006. Around 3:30pm
At the Dunkin Donuts across from the 92nd Y. Nanny was African American. Probably late 30's. She had short, curled hair.No accent. Two Caucasian girls. The one in question was about 8-10 years old. Brown hair. She had a blue rolling backpack with the initials NSF.This is not a bad nanny sighting. Rather there is obviously something seriously wrong with the dynamic between the mom, the girl and the nanny. The girl was sitting in the middle of DD screaming and crying her head off, wailing "I want a donut, I want a donut" over and over. The nanny was waiting outside of the DD with the other girl. Then the crying girl dialed her mother on the cell phone and started sobbing "Mommy, I want a donut," and "SHE's mean to me." She tried to tell the mom that the nanny had left her all alone in the DD. If the mom is reading this, what your daughter told you is not true. The nanny was none to pleased with her behavior, but she was watching her through the window the whole time. BTW, I don't think it's normal for a child this age to still be having tantrums about donuts.I left the store and she was still trying to convince the mother how awful the nanny was for not buying her a donut.About ten minutes later, I spotted them again in front of the Y. The girl was carrying a Dunkin Donuts bag. This girl seemed pretty out of control. The mom and nanny need to get on the same page. If she's behaving like this at 10, what will she be like as a teenager?

That is ridiculous! Spoiled, spoiled, spoiled! Parents and the nanny need to be on the same page regarding all aspects of raising the child...Parents-support the nanny's decision. Nanny-support the parents' decision.

i can't believe she got a donut! the girl used the mom against the nanny which is not a good lesson to teach your kids. this behavior needs to stop now otherwise the tantrums could become physical. if thats what she does in public, how does she act at home?

Oh NOOOO she didnt give in.

That kid would get about ten more minutes of my care. And then I would QUIT. Parents need to be firm with their kids....and little Sybill there is an international incident waiting to happen. I wouldnt be the nanny caught in the crossfiew.

Isn't it funny that the same child who is tantruming is also dialing a cell phone?!

And parents wonder why their children often turn on them. I am a nanny and I have one rule. I don't take care of brats. Parents need to take a lesson from the Ziccardis in Fort Salonga!! They are the best - 4 well adjusted darlings.

That's got to be an absolutely thankless job.
