Being a stay-at-home mom is no easy task, especially with a 2-year-old and a newborn. Throw in a nanny for the first time, and you’ve got a recipe for drama. Our mom, let’s call her ‘Commander-in-Crib’, was initially wary of leaving her kids with a stranger. So, she decided to bring the nanny along on errands. But as her needs changed, so did her expectations… and that’s where the trouble began.

After a whirlwind of expanding duties, pay disputes, and the infamous ‘blueberry incident’, the nanny decides to resign, leaving our ‘Commander-in-Crib’ in a state of self-reflection. Was she micromanaging or merely upholding her household standards? And who really was in the wrong here? Let’s dive into the internet’s thoughts on this domestic drama.
