Thank you Mark!
Nothing is more important than the welfare of your children. Give them the stablity they need and deserve. If you can’t afford to stay home, then don’t have kids.

THIS WOMAN GAVE BIRTH TO TWO LITTLE HUMAN BEINGS AND THEN HANDED THEM OFF TO SOMEONE ELSE TO RAISE. HOW DARE HER INSULT DOG AND CAT MOTHERS!!! SHE SAYS THE NANNY JUST CARRIED THEM AROUND LIKE “DOGS AND CATS” AS IF DOG AND CAT MOTHERS WOULD EVER JUST TAKE OFF FOR THE BETTER PART OF EVERY SINGLE DAY AND LEAVE THEIR HELPLESS OFF SPRING WITH OTHER DOGS AND CATS.

SHE HAS INSULTED THE PARENTING SKILLS OF THE ANIMAL KINGDOM!!! ANIMALS MAKE THEIR OFF SPRING THEIR TOP PRIORITY!

GLAD MOM WAS ABLE TO GET BACK TO HER RETAIL JOB AS QUICKLY AS SHE DID.

NOW “MOMMY” GET BACK OUT THERE AND SELL SOMETHING SO YOU CAN PAY SOMEONE ELSE TO RAISE YOUR CHILDREN!!!

VIOLET THE NANNY………

Mothers have a RIGHT TO WORK?! Of course they do you idiiot and their JOB is raising the little human beings they gave birth to!

You are a nanny and think mothers have the right to work. That’s logical I suppose, since you would have to get a real job if parents decided to be real parents!

Using your “logic” drunks have a right to drive too. I mean if drunks didn’t drive some police wouldn’t have the right to work.

Both parents working…lets see; the kids are with the nanny or in the (children holding pens known as day cares) or school (or both) until mommy and daddy get home from work. By then it’s (maybe as early as 5:30- 6{30). Get home feed them dinner, give them baths and now its 7 or 7:30. In another 30 to 90 minutes it’s time for bed. Sounds reasonable to me.

DO WHAT’S BEST FOR YOUR CHILDREN AND BE A PARENT!!!

Have any of you read “What mothers do (especially when it looks like nothing)” by Naomi Stadlen

She says: “Never has any generation prepared its girls as casually for motherhood as ours. In the past, preparation was usually informal, yet it worked. Girls were put in charge of their younger siblings. Such girlhood preparation may have been restricting, yet it seems to have disappeared without anything new to replace it. In what other society have so many new mothers say they cannot remember holding any baby before they held their own?”

Be a mom and stay home with your children. You can see from the vid that they are not poor! And just handing them over to a stranger is the lowest! Be a parent! If you don’t have a mothering instinct NEVER have children! Close your leggs and show some common sense.

As the children’s mom, she is right to be concerned with how her children are taken care of. She is their advocate. Just wanted to say, there are many good loving moms who care for their own children in the same way the nanny did, but would be unhappy to see others do the same with their child. Unless the baby had rolled over before, there is no reasonable expectation that he would (and fall off the couch). Ask any mom with more than one child and I am sure they would have a story of their child unexpectedly reaching a milestone of development like learning to roll and getting into something previously not of concern. Picking a child up by the front of his sleeper, when they have developed enough to hold their head up on their own, is not harmful. Some babies actually like being carried like a football. Provided of course they don’t get their heads banged. At 7 months of age it is often funny to them. As is being held in someone’s lap, as she calls it ‘upside down’. Babies at that age love often this! Just because it is not the mom’s experience to see this happen (Not too many babies carried as footballs in the grocery store or park… they are all tucked into strollers or carriers) doesn’t mean that others are bad moms for doing these things. As I said – she is completely right to care for her own children in the best manner possible; But I just wanted to say that more years and even more kids, while not diminishing the good protective nature of a mother, can give a much broader perspective to the whole scope of what’s “normal”. If the children’s father had done any of the things she found unacceptable, she would probably just have verbally chastized him and said that’s not how it’s going to be in our house, and they would have come to an agreement on the matter. I can’t help but think that the mother’s natural and good instinct of protection especially after prolonged hospitalization, would lead her to be protective of her babies. She is being a good mom. I am always pleased to see that. But I don’t think the nanny is a bad nanny for what she did.

Another example of materialism over maternity. Those kids don’t need a nanny or the stuff you can buy them with your job at Saks – they need a mom. No one can love and raise a child like a mom and dad. Quit your job to love and raise your kids!

Danielle, wow if thats the way you would treat your children then you should not be a parent.I in no way see that holding an infant by it’s sleeper & DROPPING it on a pillow the way that nanny did, can be construed as reasonable care.
I have had in my care well over a hundred children over the years & I never treated them in such a manner.
Having said all that, I’m a firm believer that if you make a choice to be a parent that should be your full time job.People who have them to let other raise them is never a good idea.

Mom has the right to work, as well as being entitled to professional childcare. Being a mother first, I know what is out there caring for children. I’m in my second career as a nanny, due to the fact that I feel all parents deserve the best care they can get for their children.

This gives good reason why all nannies should be certified. I do hope this got reported to the appropriate authorities. Anyone that thinks it is okay to handle children in this manner should be reported for abuse. Their little organs are still fragile at this age. That is the reason shaking is so horrible, would you want this done to you? Put yourself in these children’s place. Have a heart and use your brain!

This is why mom MUST stay home and be a mom. Motherhood is a job, the most important job they will ever have. I am glad the babies were ok.

Until the United States requires training with licensing for the nanny profession we are going to see many more unqualified people calling themselves nannies and putting children at risk.Parents have no standards to judge the competance of the caregiver.
