You can probably guess what this is about before you even open it.

Can I just say something about the negative comments on the site saying that if she dressed better and spent more time on her appearance she would look upper-middle class and not like a ‘poor person’? That’s bull shit. I’m a white, poor nanny who goes to work in basketball shorts and tank tops in an upper-middle class neighborhood that it has never once been assumed that I am the nanny of those kids? I am automatically presumed that I am their mother because we have the same skin tone. It doesn’t matter that I’m not wearing makeup or heels like all the other women in this neighborhood because they have nannies to look after their kids and money to spend on that kind of thing. It doesn’t matter that I’m so young. It doesn’t matter that I couldn’t afford that neighborhood to save my life. All that matters is that I’m white. And white people are automatically considered to be the help.
