Nanny accused of dumping children in unlicensed day care
L.A. officials say she told multiple parents in Hancock Park and Larchmont that she was taking their children to outside activities. Instead, she left them at a Hollywood apartment.

Nanny at Veteran's Park, Culver City, Today
I was running by Veteran's Park (Overland and Culver) at 9am and saw
a nanny with a little girl. The nanny grabbed the girl and spanked
her twice. She was yelling at the sobbing girl, "I told you not to
take your shoes off!" She looked up and saw me loop back towards her
and stopped. I ran over and asked if everything was ok. She
wouldn't answer me and I wasn't sure what to do, so I thought I would
walk into the building and find a phone to call the police (I
remember a Peachhead mom suggesting this), but as I started towards
the building, she took off across the field with the child.
The nanny was in her 40s, short hair, Hispanic, wearing white capri
pants and a grey zip up sweatshirt. The child was between 2-3,
shoulder length dark, straight brown hair, brown eyes. She was
wearing a brown zip up sweatshirt.
I feel like I should have done more, but wasn't sure what else to do.
My nanny is heading to the park now to do recon and see if they came
back and if she can find out her name.

Was this your nanny and your precious son (horror story)?
I've never posted one of these "I saw your nanny" things, but
something I saw today has me really upset and hoping that we can find
a little boy's parents and tell them this story. I work at the
Howard Hughes Center (where the Bridge theater is) and at lunch
today, my girlfriend and I walked by an outdoor table where a nanny
was talking on her cell phone while a beautiful 2-ish year old boy
with blond curly hair was standing near her. For whatever reason,
she yanked on his arm, causing him to crash forehead first (hard!)
into the corner of the wood table and then he fell to the ground,
crying hysterically. She grabbed him by the arm again and yanked him
up, ignoring his tears, and never once stopped her phone conversation
or comforted the boy or even looked at him. It was beyond
heartbreaking. Afraid to intervene (I know, I should grow a pair),
my friend and I went into lunch. When we came out a half hour later,
the nanny was still there, STILL on her phone, and the boy was just
staring into space sitting in his umbrella stroller. Here are the
details I remember: the little boy was white, with blond curly hair,
around 2, wearing a khaki green and white striped shirt and khaki
green pants. He had a beige/brownish umbrella stroller, maybe a
Graco. The nanny was African-American, middle age (it was hard to
tell with the hat...could have been 40's even to 60's) wearing blue
jeans, a blue jean jacket/shirt and a black hat with white "racing
stripes" on it. I think she had a black knapsack with the same white
stripes. She was wearing big gold hoop earrings and had a gold band
on her left ring finger. Could she have been your nanny with your
beautiful, sweet boy? Could you know someone whose nanny or little
boy fits this description? It was so sad and I just can't stop
thinking about it. Pass this on to anyone that might have had their
child with this woman today and needs to see this.

Northridge Mall-girl about 4 y.o.
I've posted this on Peachhead and CityMommy and someone recommended your site as well. I really hope this gets to the right parents!!!
I don't know if I have enough information to make a difference here. All I know is that if this was my nanny I would certainly want to know. So I hope this helps...
While at the Northridge Mall this afternoon I witnessed a girl playing in the play area while her "nanny" slept. She was actually asleep. These play areas are not enclosed and the girl could easily have slipped out and been long gone before her nanny woke up to notice.
I didn't get any names, unfortunately. But here is a description of the girl:
About 4 years old. She was either Hispanic or Asian- with dark hair in a ponytail. She had a long sleeved pink shirt that read "Look For The Bare Necessities" from the Jungle Book. Blue jeans with pink embroideries. When they left she put on a white fuzzy jacket and a Disney princess backpack.
The nanny was wearing a bright green goose-down like vest jacket and carrying a gold purse.
With two small kids of my own I've experienced how quickly they can get out of your sight. And if a nanny is falling asleep in a public place what could they be doing in your home when no one is watching?

Boy & Girl twins at Holmby Park
I was at Holmby Park this morning at around 11 a.m. when a nanny came with boy/girl twins. I noticed her right away, as we also have b/g twins, but more because she was being really rough with them. The whole time she was there she had a scowl on her face & was jerking the kids around & speaking really harshly towards them. The poor babies looked so bewildered & sad. I tried to make friendly contact with her so I could get info but she basically brushed me off & moved to another area of the playground with them.
I was with a friend who also noticed her & remarked on her behavior.
She gave us a very uncomfortable feeling as she seemed really irritated & rough with the children who were doing nothing at all & were only 15 months old (the only info I could get from her). In my opinion, this is a woman who does not enjoy being with children & I would be devastated to know that my babies were being treated that way.
Babies: boy & girl 15 months old, blonde hair. Girl in pink sweater, boy in blue pants & orange long sleeve T. Both walking w/ assistance. Combi black & tan, side by side stroller.
Nanny: Maybe mid-thirties, heavy set, Hispanic. Spoke only Spanish
with the babies but understood when I asked how old they were.
Wearing a navy short sleeved T & blue & white Nike sneakers. Short black hair in pony tail.
I HIGHLY suggest to all parents that you have someone your nanny doesn't know check on your children when she takes your children out......many people show their true colors when they think the parents aren't around!

TAYLOR at Burbank Park
Dear mommies,
It has come to my attention through a VERY reliable source that on
Thursday, November 1st at about 9:30 a.m., a little boy, named TAYLOR,
about 2 and a 1/2 years old, dressed in a Buzz Lightyear (Halloween)
costume was at Burbank Park with his nanny and a group of other nannies
and children. My source observed Taylor having an physical altercation
with another child (as toddlers do!), and the nanny grabbed him, began
hitting him and yelling at him calling him a "bad boy!", etc. Clearly
this child needed redirection - NOT physical or verbal abuse!!! My
source took it upon herself to step in and try to redirect the nanny,
who not only became defensive toward my source, but the other nannies
came to her defense as well. My source observed Taylor very upset and
unable to console. As a mother, I cannot imagine this happening to my
child with the person whom I intrust their care with!!! If ANY of you
have an idea of who this child belongs to, PLEASE forward this
information to the parents.

Nanny of twins in Venice
I just want to put the word out there. Today, 11/1/07, at almost
3pm, I was at Ross on Lincoln in Venice, when I encountered a nanny
of infant twins with a 12/13 year old girl who seemed to be her
daughter.
While I was looking through the rack, one of the infant twins was
crying hystarically in a strollar. The nanny continued shopping,
pointing out to the teen that a sweater was cute. She completly
ignored the infant. Then she checked out at the register, still
ignoring the infant, waited for the teen to pay for her items and
then they left. The whole scene took about 25 minutes, all the time
the infant cried hystarically and kicking his legs. The nanny never
once picked him up to console him or even looked at him to make sure
he was ok.
I am a nanny and a parent and I was completly mortified by the
nanny's behavior. This infant clearly needed attention.
The nanny was was wearing a bright neon pink long sleeved shirt and
jeans. She is hispanic and spoke spanish to the teenaged girl. The
twins, one of which was a boy, were in a red Maclaren twin stroller
and the twins seemed to me to be less than 2 months old. The infant
crying still had more of an "infant" cry. I believe that the family
must live with in walking distance, because they did not go to a car
and walked out of the parking lot heading South on Lincoln.
If you know who the twins might be, please contact the
parents and let them know.

Ventura and Laurel-nanny & girl
While out walking this morning about 11 AM, I saw a child, a girl about
3 years old in a stroller at the bus stop at Ventura and Laurel
Canyon. She had a lunchbox with the name "Holland" on it.
The nanny was screaming at her and hitting her on the top of the head.
If anyone know who this child might be, please contact her parents.

Nanny Warning- IMPORTANT
I don't even know where to begin on this one. And I feel so stupid writing this email. But I
feel that it is IMPERATIVE that I do and that I warn any of you out there looking for a nanny
or who have a nanny now.
5 months ago, when our twins were 2 months old, we found a woman who we thought was
a godsend. The most wonderful nanny. She was so loving with our kids, experienced with
twins, she was legal, she spoke English, she drove, she took them to such great places. I
checked all of her many references & no one had one bad thing to say about her.
Yesterday we found out that for the last 4 months she has been dropping our beautiful,
precious children off at some random, unliscenced "daycare" & going off for the whole day
to work either at other families' homes or at the farmer's market (or run errands or
whatever). We had to call the police to get our children out of this place because the
woman wouldn't open the door for us. It was a nightmare experience.
It turns out, as I said, they had been there for 4 months. The twins she watched prior to
coming to work for us had been droped off there for FIVE YEARS! She was dropping off
many other children over the years. But according to the woman who ran the place, our
nanny was "such a good person" because she only made $60 a day (TOTALLY UNTRUE) &
she was paying this woman $30 a day to watch these kids! OH MY GOD!
Anyway, this is way more detailed than I had intended but I almost can't stop myself. I am
so afraid for any of you out there that may come in contact with her because she is a
MASTER manipulator as far as I am concerned. A total sociopath. I never ONCE suspected
anything & we are NOT stupid people (despite what you may be thinking) & we ADORE our
children. I am crying just writing this email.
ANyway, I have a lot of information about this woman but don't think I should necessarily
post it all here. PLEASE, if you, anyone you know, has a nanny named Patricia from El
Salvador or you ever interview a nanny named Patricia....stay FAR AWAY. We live near The
Grove so she seems to work mostly East of the Beverly Center but I have no idea. Please
pass this on to anyone you know. I do not want anyone to suffer what we are suffering.
Our kids seem to be OK, but I can't sleep or eat thinking about what could have happened
to them.
Sorry this is so long. If anyone thinks they might know this woman or she might be
working for you, please email me off line.
Thank you for reading

Nanny Mecedes, girl Emma, Culver City
This girl's name is Emma, around age 2. Her nanny's name is Mercedes. The first day my nanny meets her nanny she told my nanny "You should go to the mall or shops, don't need to stay in the park all the time." My nanny ignored her. Then she notices M puts Emma in the stroller and
doesn't want her to get off from the stroller, even Emma asks for going on the swing, she told her to stay in the stroller. My nanny talked to the other nanny in the park about this. The other nanny said M does this to Emma all the time, but when the mom comes with them to the park. M would put on a big show to the mom. She would treat the girl very well and do a lot of stuff with her. In fact, normally she just sits there or talk on her cell phone. The other nanny said she wants to tell the mom the truth, but she doesn't want get herself in trouble.

Acapulco Restaurant on La Cienega, Sept. 5th
My husband and I were having lunch on Tuesday, September 5th around 1:30 at Alcapuloc on La Cienega just north of Beverly. There were two women there - clearly nannies - with two boys. It "appeared" that they had met up for lunch. I believe the women were both Hispanic. The boys were around 2 and 4. I think one was in a high chair and the other in a booster seat.
Anyway, the women (1) were drinking margharitas in front of the kids (2) were toasting each other and the boys thus emphasizing the drinks and (3) had clearly driven there because (4) when the older boy seemed to need attention one of the women YELLED at him and told him if he didn't be quiet she was going to go put him in the car and leave him there.
It was really upsetting. I don't know if anyone remembers their nanny meeting with a friend at that restaurant on that day but there was almost no one else in the restaurant - it was totally empty.

Santa Monica Blvd near Highland
Your son looks about a year old, light brown hair, fair skin. His stoller is light green. Your nanny is Hispanic, in her 30's, was wearing purple pants. She was pushing him into traffic against a red light. Traffic had to stop at the intersection for them, which was very busy. It was about 9 AM.
