We hired a full time Nanny recently. Her refs were great, and we really liked her, until she started. Her first day she was 10 minutes late, not a huge deal as it was her 1st week, so I was working from home. Her 2 year old son was with her, and upon her interviews she had suggested bringing him and offered discounted rates in order for that consideration.
At the end of my workday, I went into the main house and it was a disaster. I cleaned up after she left, and noted it was her 1st day, so she likely had her hands full.
Day 2 she was 45 minutes late, again with her 2 year old in tow. I then noticed she did not have a diaper bag for her child with her. Again at the end of the day the house was a mess.
This pattern continued all week, she was late every day, used my childs diapers wipes and supplies as well as fed her child all his meals at my home. The meals I don't have issue with, but I do think using my diapers all day is a bit of an imposition. Friday night, as she left we asked her how she felt her first week went, and that's where she suggested a higher salary. I told her we would take it under consideration. We had intitially offered her a salaried position, based on 12 dollars an hour for a 45 hour workweek. She was to get all of our holidays off with pay as well, and when we took vacation in December and August, those 2 weeks were paid for her as well, Honestly, given her performance I found her asking for more money offensive.
About 2 hours after she left Friday, my husband noticed my daughters strollers were missing from the coat closet. 1 stroller was an inexpensive folding one from WalMart, the other was a high end jogging stroller given to me as a gift. My husband called the nanny to ask where they were and she said she had borrowed them to go to the zoo with her friend and her friends child over the weekend.
I told her in no uncertain terms, they were to be returned by midmorning this morning. I want to fire her. But, are her actions common with professional nannies now? Am I too sensitive?
Fire her..
