Thread: Nanny Dearest (Ava & SinfullySweet)

Sarah finished wiping up a counter quickly before she left the kitchen and went over to take a seat across from the new nanny, a small smile adorned to her face. She decided to respond to the nice comment made by the nanny, always happy to hear a compliment about her daughter but feeling something needed to be aired out quickly. She is a bright girl but polite is questionable, more obedient than anything. In fact many of the prior nannies have told me she was a bit troublesome when I go to work. The disdain was evident in her voice, she didn't like people speaking in such ways of her daughter because it was simply her being a child, being upset that her mother had to leave and someone else was looking after her, if they had been good nannies they could have handled it and actually tried to discover the reason behind instead of pawning her off as 'troublesome'. That was neither here nor there though and the woman quickly moved on, relaxing on the coach and looking over at the rather stunning woman. Well I am glad to meet you Gabriella and I hope to keep this formal as well so Sarah will do just fine. As for my so-called problems with the previous nannies I suppose it could be because I am looking for the perfect nanny. I am sure plenty of the people who hire you have a lot on their plate but I want to be able to do all of the things I have to without worrying about anything relating to my daughter and her home life during the times in which I am not able to be around. As Gabriella explained how she did things it seemed as if she was listing off what Sarah was looking for, at least on paper. Hearing that she would help out with household chores was unexpected but it brought a small content smile to Sarah's face, not that she wasn't capable of doing those things on most days but she was occasionally unable to do such things and having someone who was willing made a difference. As Gabriella finished explaining the basics of how she did things Sarah's eyes met hers and she let out a sigh of relief, Well honestly I am happy to hear everything you said. First and foremost I am quite happy to hear that you are willing to help out when I need it because most of your predecessors seemed to have a problem with doing anything but staring at Hannah and making sure she didn't get into trouble. Being a single mother I occasionally need some extra help to ensure my daughter has a good household life. She looked the woman up and down for a minute and then smiled again, As you can see I am not the type to wear anything 'fancy' or 'expensive', I prefer comfort and practicality as opposed to formal attire, even at the hospital I usually just throw my coat over this type of clothing. That being said I believe you wearing something casual is not only alright but better than the alternative. Her previous words implied what she was about to say and she had already decided to give Gabriella a shot and though she still had some things to discuss with her before giving her the job. So far you sound perfect but there are a couple of guidelines that I should say before we go any farther. The first is that while you are under my employ you will need to try and avoid having a lover of any sort over, if you wish to or already have a relationship please keep it away from the house. She was talking of sex of course but having a lover over for long periods of time around a child didn't sit well, one of the nannies just didn't agree with that and she was let go for that very reason. Another rule I would like to put in place is that if you wish to take time off you need to tell me well in advance, my schedule work wise is hard enough to manage as is and having to suddenly call in work or take a day off is not good. Now those are the only two big requirements I have in place but I believe them to be fair and other than that I will trust you. Sarah crossed her slender legs and continued to look at Gabriella, Now I am sure you have some questions and perhaps some concerns so please say anything that's on your mind. The atmosphere was entirely casual, she was not interested in tension or making things uncomfortable, she just wanted to talk and getting everything out in the open.
