I've been your nanny for many years now, and I think we've are pretty close. Considering that I've seen you countless times in nothing but your panties, I think we are even a little too close.
Now that I've said that, I need you to know that no matter how many of your children I've taken care of, how many times I've shared in your joy, and empathised with you when you were down. There are a few things I wish you know, but which I just can't tell you.
1. I have no interest at all in your husband
You fell in love with him for a reason and he seems like a nice person. Attractive in his own ways and a great dad, I think he's meant just for you. For even though you ignore his weakness, I don't seem to be able to do so after I've watched him deeping his hand into your pot of stew, leave his dirty socks and smelly clothes around the house and leave his used plate in the sink when he could as well wash it. Any kind of attraction I had for him fled, and now all I feel for him is respect. So please take off the idea that I'm going to steal your man from your mind.
2. I look up to you
You are everything I hope to be. You have a perfect job, you have a loving husband and cute kids, you have an expensive taste and your house looks like a magazine spread. I want to be like you someday, in the meantime I'll try to do that by spending a certain amount of my paycheck on buying the same beauty products you use.
3. I wish you'd say thank you more often
Even though you pay me to do my job, it would help if you would say thank you more often because this job is like no other. And if I don't love your kids or show them love you cannot blame me since you didn't pay for my love. And when I treat your children like I would my own, and take care of your house like it's mine, I think I deserve a thank you. What makes me feel good about what I do then is not the paycheck, because I'm absolutely making a difference in your home, and there are no rewards, or promotion like they do in other jobs, so the only thing you can do to show me you appreciate my effort is your gratitude and it cost you nothing. So endeavour to give it generously.
4. I’m scared to eat your food
For I know you'll know, I'm scared to eat your food, especially if it's something you haven't opened yet. And although you said it's okay to help myself, I'm sure you might notice that the tin of milo that you've never opened has been eaten and is now half full, then you would fire me. This fear does not apply when I'm feeding your child indomie though because you wouldn't know I'm feeding myself while feeding him.
5. I won't steal your things
This is unless you make me to. So feed me well, pay me my full salary, don't beat me or maltreat me. Afterall I am another mother's child. So treat me like you would want a stranger to treat your own children.
