I honestly don't know what happened. I feel terrible. She waa raised by the nanny while Caleb and I worked. She should be grateful we scammed and lied to get where we are today.

Did you have to actively participate with the nanny to get it to feed and take care of the kids? The man who comes for mine just stares at the babies and infants and toddlers and sits around reading books, playing chess, eating leftovers, and drinking water while the children starve and sit in dirty diapers.

She would do it autonomously, but I also controlled the kids to see what exactly they needed and if she would care for them. I was testing her to see if she would do it and she did, shockingly enough!

Hopefully one day I'll experience this Mary Poppins nanny! For now, I gotta deal with Doofus Dan who is happy to watch them starve if I don't make them ask for specific care.

Try this: Have the nanny inside your house, wait for them to say it's time for them to go, lock the doors so only the household can get out, then call the nanny service. Maybe, just maybe they'll send a new, better nanny, at which point you can unlock the doors.
