It's called MOMMY and me...

I was at a mommy and me class this morning and there were 3 nannies there!  I couldn't believe it.  Two mothers sent the nannies in their place and one mother brought the nanny with her and the baby.  How ridiculous is that?  It's 45 minutes, is it really that hard to spend 45 minutes with your kid?

    Yeah, this is what I am thinking. I don't think kids should be denied fun because their mom works!

    Yeah, I don't think it's that weird to send the nanny if you work FT. If you're out getting a manicure or whatever, it's pretty weird.

    When they are this young, isn't it more about the mommies than the babies?  I joined a mommy group for that reason and would be bummed if it were all nannies.

    It honestly didn't cross my mind that they might be working... In this case, I don't think they were.  I'm going more with the manicure theory.  It's like when I would see women in my neighborhood in NYC walking with their baby and the nanny was pushing the stroller.  That always annoyed me probably more than it should.

    Haha, let me guess - upper east side, round abouts Madison/Lexington in the 70s?

     Totally. I lived on the other side of the park at 74th/Amsterdam - less nannies over there I think.

    Tribeca is starting to fit that description now, too.

    My sister is my nanny and she will be taking LO to all kinds of classes. The other mommies will simply have to deal with it.

    This. I was a nanny to four kids and I was the one taking them to indoor kiddie soccer, gymnastics, mommy and me classes, playground, etc. not because their mom didn't want to.....because she couldn't because she was working.
