When I hear about stories like these I feel like I'm having a bad nightmare yet I quickly realize that these heartwrenching stories are what some have to endure each day.
What gives me hope however is that these horrible stories are not only upsetting to nannies but also to many nanny employers too- in fact to all those who see value in the humanity of others. Additionally as nannies begin to feel empowered because of the strength which exists in community they will begin to reject some of these horrible work situations. #darkunderbellyofthenannyworld
