Have you seen my nanny? "I Saw Your Nanny" blog lets you tell all...

There are some very paranoid people out here, and none more-so than mothers who have to entrust their beloved offspring into the arms of a virtual stranger daily. Every day they deposit their beloved with the nanny and have to hope that this one won't run off with their husband/ bully their kids/spend their days tethering their kids to leads and making them fetch. In response to the growing fears for kiddies safety many avenues have been explored, from nanny cams, to hourly phone calls, and surprise drop in visits to check everything is OK in your absence.

Well, now nanny stalking has gone cyber with the I saw your nanny website, which people can email or text in info about nannies they have seen. The site is so popular that it now has sections devoted to individual states and countries and entries range from the bizarre, 'your nanny looks like an ape', to the more worrying reports of nannies seen asleep on the job. The site is anonymous, but people can recognize their nannies from the description, and hopefully rectify the situation.

Good God. Is this what we have come to?
I guess I'll pay more attention on my afternoon commute home from work. I pass two jam packed parks. Before this, the nannies were just eyesores.
Now, they're news.

PS hot nannies are a myth

Excellent find. This site is very interesting but the posts can be very disturbing! As is the anti working mom tone I get from some of the commnets.
