Nanny No-No

I received a call from the nanny stating there was a “small mishap” and that she could not get the key out of the front door. She stated it was stuck and she could not get it out. I then received a call at work from Taylor, asking for directions to the park. I returned the call and I explained to the nanny how to get to the park at the end of our street. I then asked to speak with Taylor. At the time I was speaking with the nanny, I was not on speakerphone. When Taylor got on the phone, it was clearly evident ( and then later verified ) that I was having my conversation with him on the speakerphone. I called the nanny back to go over the problem with the key, and asked to speak with Taylor. That was not possible, Taylor was not at the house. I asked what she meant. She stated that Taylor went outside to ride his bike and there was another child outside playing with him. SHE WENT BACK INSIDE THE HOUSE AND ALLOWED MY SON TO STAY OUTSTIDE BY HIMSELF AND GO INTO ANOTHER CHILD’S HOME UNSUPERVISED. I AT NO TIME AUTHORIZED TAYLOR TO GO INTO THE HOUSE OF ANOTHER CHILD UNSUPERVISED. THE NANNY WAS IN MY HOME FOR “ABOUT 30 MINUTES” BEFORE TAYLOR CAME HOME. I should note that her going inside and allowing Taylor to play outside by himself and the other child alone is a separate hazard along with Taylor going into the neighbors home; because in verifying with the Arizona Department of Public Safety, there are 8 s*x offenders in my zip code alone. The only reason Taylor came home was he stated that the child’s house that he was at, that the parent had to have that child take a shower. This was the point Taylor was sent home from this unknown child’s house. So the nanny was going to continue to allow him to stay at this child’s home without asking me or verifying that it was ok? I do not allow my son to go into other children’s homes to play even when I am at home. I do not know what the inside of the houses look like, I do not know our neighbors well and certainly not even well enough to allow my son to go in unsupervised. The only time that she should not have been able to see my son is when he was using the restroom or when she was using the restroom. This is not the case. I am absolutely horrified that she allowed him to go inside and away from my home without asking me if it was ok, checking with this other child’s parent to see what was going on and allowing herself the opportunity to stay in the house while Taylor was out and about. Clearly she was negligent in taking care of him and did not have his safety in mind or respect enough let alone common sense that you do not allow an eight year old to go out of the house unsupervised and not know where he is going. At that rate, Taylor would have been safer left alone with instructions to not leave the home.
