A friend of mine has a different Nanny for her children every day in the week. And the Nannies change often. The children never bond with these women, and know they are only their to mind them.
Admixed with the Nannies are female relatives, , his mother, her sister, his aunt, etc.
I figured she was crazy, and mentioned it.
That is when she told me a really awful story.
When she was growing up there was a little girl down the road who was taken care of by a woman I’ll call Yvette.
Yvette turned that little girl against her mother.
Although Yvette was fired and disgraced and the girl began to hate her, it didn’t remove the hatred in her heart against her mother.
There was nothing her mother could do or not do to bring the girl close and the girl moved far away and didn’t care very much about her own mother.
I didn’t know how common it was, until I heard another woman talking about the same thing. Only, in this case, it was her own mother in law who poisoned her child’s mind.
I find it amazing that these things can happen.
A mother has to work to feed her family. She gets someone to look after her child and that person becomes the worst influence in that child’s life.
And that child doesn’t outgrow it.

That is a scary story. You have to be careful with who you leave your children with these days. I worked as a nanny for quite awhile and I was always background checked and had to provide references, all those kinds of things before I was hired.
Yes, but even then... if the child bonds with you... then the parents are squeezed out. Parents have to be more hands on.. even with a Nanny and try to have time alone with the child.
At some point, it is a downfall of a mother to be treated that way by their own child. That's the reason, it is not advisable to have nannies. There is always a scenario of what you had mentioned. Most mothers are being resentful for such wrong decision in taking good care of their children by other people.
In worst cases, some nannies maltreated children. It has been a big issue. I had seen some news about it. It was a criminal act in abusing the innocence of a child. For parents, I think they need to be vigilant in looking for nannies.
One has to be careful. Think of the hard working mother who is doing the best for her child. And her child being turned against her by the Nanny so that she never loves her own mother.
That's very sad. It has become a common occurence where Nancy's are doing crazy things in the homes where they work. There are those who cross the lines and start reducing theme of the house with the way they carry themselves around. Then there are those who literally poison the kids against their parents. I may not know the exact reasons why they would do such things but it's very unfortunate. We are always being told that parents should pay close attention to their kids always try to find time to eat with them play together and that way the bond between them and the kids will be very tight that the nanny's won't have the chance to come between the parents and the kids. But nowadays the roles have been turned around kids are literally been taken care of by the nanny's so what else does one expect if that is what is happening in the house. I have a neighbour who never spends time with her kids and is forever changing nanny's it is a risky affair to keep bringing different people into your house. Your kids may adopt the behavior of being rude and unkind to everyone because they think your not serious about anything. We all know how kids can speculate things.
It is better to change Nannys often than to allow one, like Yvette, to poison a child against her own mother. Many women have to work or the family will starve. She doesn't want to leave her children, she must. The person who is looking after the children is there because she is paid, not because she wants to be there. Turning the child against the mother might be her way to steal.
