15 Tips to Prevent Your Husband from Cheating with the Nanny
It seems like an alarming trend these days—nanny affairs. You’ve probably seen the headlines of celebrities like Mark Thompson and Jason Reed whose marriages crumbled because of a dalliance with the babysitter. Remember how things went south for Oliver Stone when he crossed that line? It’s frustrating to think about, especially when you consider the trust we place in these caregivers for our children.
As a mom and a woman, I’ve often thought, “I’m confident in my marriage; what’s the harm?” But then I had an experience with a somewhat attractive nanny, Clara. She was charming, and when my husband complimented her outfit, it was like I had opened Pandora’s box. Suddenly, she thought they had a connection. Thankfully, my husband remained loyal, but it taught me a valuable lesson: sometimes the real risk comes from the nanny’s perspective rather than your partner’s.
So, ladies, if you want to steer clear of the nanny affair epidemic, here are some practical tips to keep your home safe:
- Let the nanny handle bath time for the kids, not your husband.
- Avoid mentioning “threesomes” or “three-ways” around the nanny.
- Ask her to shop for toys for the kids, not for any adult items.
- Have the nanny over during taco night when your husband gets a little too comfortable; trust me, it changes the dynamic.
- If she’s staying over, clarify that it’s not in your bed.
- Make it clear that when you say, “we’re going out tonight,” you mean just you and your husband.
- During interviews, inquire about her hobbies, not her favorite positions.
- Skip the nannies whose resumes feature modeling photos.
- If your nanny finds your husband’s jokes hilarious, remind her that they might lose their charm after the hundredth retelling.
- Don’t forget that a uniform for the nanny should include a bra.
- If she asks to leave early for a tanning session, kindly suggest she stay longer and offer overtime if necessary.
- Avoid hiring nannies from “beautiful people” colleges like Arizona State.
- Don’t marry someone like Mark Thompson.
- Avoid marrying a jerk.
- Lastly, leaving your nanny on a family “save-the-marriage” vacation? Bad idea—three’s a crowd, and it can lead to trouble.
