Nanny Alert
One of the risks working parents have to take is to leave their child(ren) behind in the care of their nannies. Most of the time, these nannies are strangers. When they get a little lucky, these nannies are people known to them. There are those who have their parents look after their children.
Is it any wonder then that in situations like these, household put up video surveillance equipment in their homes?
If my situation is like that I have mentioned above, i would definitely install these things. And why not? There have been a lot of abuses recorded on these equipments by yes, the nannies towards the children they were supposed to take care of.
Some were so difficult to watch. One time I even had my younger children watch a video that managed to record an abuse by a nanny who brutally abused her ward, a girl that looked like 3-4 years old.
My then 7yo son told me why I am making them watch it, the act being done was bad.
I told them so they know that there are people who will do these things to them and they should know what to do. He answered back that I am always there and that no one will do that to them. Awww…
Sigh. Be careful in choosing your child’s nanny.
