Well she clearly chose the wrong career path. It is absolutely NOT your fault. You are an awesome mom. Hit up care.com ASAP. It is an awesome site.

trackgirlparis

You are not a bad mom! I'm so sorry you have had this thrown in your way, but you're better off! You want someone who cares and loves your DD! I'm sure you can find someone soon! Good luck!!

asilwhite

Ugh I'm so sorry that sucks. I hope you can find someone else soon who will love your DD like her own. Can't handle a fussy baby?!? Smh

Mmhodges07

Oh, I am so sorry. How selfish of her. I am sure you are feeling beyond overwhelmed. I am sure you will find a lovely person to fill her shoes. Thinking of you.

hlb622

Agree with all of the PPs. Just chiming in to send some e-hugs your way.

hartsl01

That sucks but it sounds like you're better off without! I'm sure you'll find somebody who will better suit both you and DD! Keep your head up!

carawasa

Ugh! Wtf did she expect? You are better off without her. Good luck and sorry you have to deal with this!

Ajoyd

You're not a bad mom, she is a bad nanny. You and LO are better off in the long run.

Big creepy hugs to you.

Arod1087

You should be happy she quit. She clearly wasn't giving your lo the love it needs!

Amjoy25

I literally just said "oh gawd" out loud. That is awful. So sorry, lady. It sounds like she had no idea how much work a baby can be. Care.com deft.

SweetCFly

So sorry mamma this happened to you, it deft sucks. You are not doing anything wrong! It's just hard work to take care of a baby. Clearly not her thing and your DD deserves someone who will love taking care of her, in the end it is better she was honest with you so you can find a better fit! That's what I keep telling myself as my ILs just did this to us as well... so I feel your pain. GL in your search- check out care.com for sure!!

It is not your fault at all!! As someone previously stated she's obviously in the wrong field!! What the heck did she expect? She did your favor because you would not want a person like that watching your daughter anyway. Everything happens for reason and you will find someone that is a perfect fit for your whole family! I'm so sorry that happened to you!

All this!

cassey910

So sorry. I hope you find someone else soon. I agree with the other ladies definitely not your fault.

What a tool, She sounds lazy. Forget her, go get you someone good! ((Hugs))

E-hugs! I didn't read all the responses but I would not have her come back, if she is so stressed and overwhelmed I wouldn't want her taking care of my baby... AT ALL. I get it, babies can be a LOT of work, but put LO in emergency daycare before you have your overwhelmed nanny watch her. It will all work out, so take a deep breath and find maybe a nanny agency in your area that screens the Nannies and will give you emergency care if this type of thing happens again or your nanny is sick etc. Good luck and keep us posted. PS NOT YOUR FAULT or LO's

Houseplant

Sounds very unprofessional to me.  I think it reflects way more poorly on her as the nanny than on you as her mom. I bet DD is just a good judge of character.  You're a great mom. Good luck in your search!

I agree with this. I know it puts you in a horrible position but I'd rather her quit than ignore a baby she finds overwhelming.

tashad18

I'm so sorry this is happening to you! It is not your fault.  What kind of nanny expects to watch and infant and not deal with fussiness?  I know you are in a bind right now, but you don't want someone who is "overwhelmed" caring for your baby.  You want someone who knows how to handle a baby and has patience. 

Weljadraak

Sorry she was such a douche canoe >:-(

Teresa1489

Sorry to hear! You're a great momma! Hope everything works out soon!

Inn2

Your LO is definitely better without someone like that watching them! Hang in there, you are a good mom and the right person is out there to be with your LO when you can't.

germanpickle

Sweety, the problem here is your 'nanny'. Not you. Not your baby. Be thankful that she knows her limitations and doesn't continue in a career she can't hack. 

wildbutterfli2001

The nanny can't handle a fussy baby... WTF?!! I would say good riddance and try to find someone who actually doesn't mind doing the work for their pay... That's just my opinion tho
