I’m a nanny to the rich & famous & had 3 shocking experiences – including high-profile family whose kids BIT every adult
A NANNY to the rich and famous has revealed three of the most shocking experiences that have happened to her.
The high-profile nanny, who has worked for various different royal families from all around the world, as well as public figures and really well-known celebrities, says that while most of the time it’s been incredible, there have been a few times where some “really crazy stuff” has happened.
In a clip shared to TikTok (@enchantednanny), she begins by recalling how she once worked for an extremely high-profile family whose children wouldn’t stop biting all of the staff.
“Their children just wouldn’t stop biting every adult – not each other,” she explains.
“They’d bite down if you got anywhere near and obviously when you’re nannying and you’re trying to get somebody ready for dinner, and putting bibs, on they’d clamp down like a squirrel and wouldn’t let go.”
Next up, she tells of the time she was at an event and was picked up by a member of the party who refused to put her back down again.
“It was awful, I had to use my very cross nanny voice,” she says.
“Eventually he did put me down, but I was very embarrassed and it made me feel a bit awkward and unsafe.”
And last but not least, she shares the “hideous” time a scantily-clad man tried to break into the room where she was providing care for a baby at an event.
“I was once looking after a little one and I was at a venue because a lot of the work that I did was event nannying and somebody had drunk too much and stripped down to his trousers,” she says.
“He was outside and I was inside but he was trying to get into the space where I was looking after the little one and it was only a few seconds of me feeling really not safe.
“It was all sorted out but it made me really alter the way I care for little ones if I’m looking after them late at night at a venue rather than at someone’s home.”
She captioned the post: “These are only a snapshot of what was otherwise a lovely experience, and I have far more good stories than bad to tell.
“Fundamentally, no matter the wealth, status or beauty.
“These people have the same levels of anxieties, insecurities and worries that we all do.
“I was honoured to become a part of so many incredible families who welcomed me and looked after me, and I would work as a high-profile nanny again in a heartbeat!”
It wasn’t long before the post went viral, garnering a whopping 32k views and several comments from other childcare professionals who all shared their similar horrifying experiences.
“Gosh I worked for one family and their children were biting. The eldest clamped down so hard and drew blood,” recalled one.
“I had to go buy some antiseptic cream for my arm. I have some crazy stories.”
A second penned: “I wish I could write a book..people wouldn’t believe it – sounds very similar to your experiences.”
A third added: “At my workplace there was a severe biting incident that meant all of us had to go get hepatitis b vaccinations as a precaution for any future incidents!”
