How would you feel about a nanny wearing a bikini?

[confusedalways]

Just that really. Would you find it inappropriate for a nanny to take the children swimming wearing a bikini rather than a swimming costume?

I can't imagine caring in the slightest. Why would you?

No. I don't think I would notice.

Jealous much?

Are you the nanny?

Thought you meant round the house. No, nanny swimming in an item of clothing designed for swimming, fine. Are you the nanny?

I had a nanny who used to wear a teeny weeny bikini when she took my boys swimming. DH and I thought it was quite funny (because a bikini isn't really part of my look so having a teeny bikini hanging up to dry in our house was a bit new). A number of friends who'd been swimming with their children at the same time, made a point of telling me that they'd seen the nanny with my boys and how lovely she was with them. No-one commented on the bikini

If you are the nanny, am I (the theoretical parent) with you or not?
If not, then no not really, wear what you want.
If I am with you I may be a bit put out by your youthful figure in a bikini against all my fabby bits being held in by my hold-you-in cossie.

How would you even know?

So long as it is appropriate for a swimming pool and not so skimpy it gets them kicked out then I wouldn't care.

Love the idea of fabby bits

If the nanny was male I would be a bit surprised, otherwise I couldn't summon much interest.

I can't say I would care. A bikini is a swimming costume, is it not?

this is my favourite thread title in this section in a really long time.

I don't think it matters as long as it reasonably covering.

I'm a nanny and there is one other nanny that we all hate going swimming with because she's got an amazing body and looks great in a bikini, while we're all in swim suits that practically go neck to ankle. It makes us jealous, but it doesn't effect how great she is at her job!

Sexy nannies are the best kind, no?

Please say you aren't serious!

Let me shock you... My sons nanny wears a bikini, and looks great in it too :)

I don't own a swimming costume, bikinis only! Wouldn't occur to me to be bothered by someone wearing one. Surely it's the nannies personal choice what swimwear to have??

I'm the nanny. Didn't want to be to specific to start with.

I happened to mention in passing to friends that I wore a bikini and they seemed slightly shocked, so wanted to see other peoples opinions.

I wouldn't have a problem with it. When we go on holiday we take our nanny with us and she wears a bikini too. She has a great figure, I am not jealous as I am a size smaller than her BUT after my daughter pulled her top down in front of everybody she prefers to wear swimming suits now.

Since the only Nanny as aboard to CM I've ever knowingly met was about 19. I wouldn't be surprised if a bikini was the only swim wear she owned.

I don't know, we used to keep each other company at soft play rather than the pool.

As opposed

It would really piss me off because I am massive and fat and DP would probably want to go swimming too and lust after your hot bod

I wore a bikini when swmming with the children - once - when I was nannying and got so many unpleasant vibes from the mother and so many inappropriate ones from the father and his brother that I didn't wear it again. Happily only a temp job!

If I wore a bikini it would be shocking [fabby bits don't you know] but I am sure it was lovely on you.

Wouldn't bother me .I would me interested/amused to see how coped as my bikinis weren't exactly kid swim friendly as prone to ride up/undo so picking up kids, having them pull at it could mean you end up showing more than you thought.
