AIBU Nanny Travel costs

258 replies

Hello all,

We hired a new part time nanny who does the morning and after school runs. Two of my children need a train to get to school so pay my nanny travel costs from going to take them to school in the morning and then when she is bringing them back home.

In the mornings, my nanny rides her bike and parks her bike near our closest station. She asked me that once she drops the children to school, can she use the top up travel card, to come back to the station and pick up her bike to drive home.

AIBU to say no. I don't want to pay too much travel as it is!

All in less than 24 hours and you're saying others must have nothing better to do @intheshedyes

So ironic GrinGrin

A good flounce is only good if you stay flounced.

If you keep coming back you just look like a bit of a numpty.

Have you decided yet if Nanny has worked for you for 2 days or considerably longer including summer holidays?
Or if the after school activities are ongoing or currently suspended?
I hope the assignment you were finishing earlier isn't as full of inconsistencies as these 2 threads.

G'wan, fess up.
She's the cleaner and you've offered to bung her an extra tenner cash in hand to drop the kids off haven't you? Hence your confusion about how long she's been in your life.
