Allegation against me

What an awful situation to find yourself in but at least Ofsted are aware and taking no action.

You are better off without this family - it beggars belief that mum could say she thought the children were not safe in your care but still wanted you to look after them!

Hope you're OK - you are far better off without this family!

hiya
I'm hoping you are feeling better this morning, time to termiate the contracts like many others have said. dont leave yourself subjected to more slaps on the face, asking older children for help is GREAT its all part of caring for eachother so well done to you for involvong them all within your daily routine.
Time to release the places and fill up with more "trusting" parents.

I agree the trust has broken down and i would have to terminate the contract. No way could i still look after a child after the mum had complained about me!

Hope you are ok x

i totally agree with this.

If Ofsted have not been in touch, how do you know that you have been reported? Usually they write to you but as it is a safeguarding issue I would have thought they would visit you.

I feel you should end contract.Why didn't the gran share her concerns with you first??? Like everyone else as said if she can't trust you then it isn't going to work is it...the job is hard enough as it is.You will be getting paranoid about everything to do with these children.
I remember 10 years ago when i worked as a nanny i had a really difficult child it got to the point where the parents were telling me that she was naughty with me because she knows i won't smack her.They told me i should smack her and i said NO WAY I WOULD NEVER EVER DO IT!! Anyway one day she told her mum i had hurt and scratched her arm. I was so upset and just walked out.It eventually turns out that she told someone at school she did it to get me into trouble.I was also a leader at an afterschool club at the time so i was worried as it could have cost me my career. I think parents need to treat us as professional people.

I hope you feel bettercx
