Agreed. I've been around awhile, and don't recognize her, whoever she is. But then, I don't spend a lot of time getting worked up over things that happen on message boards, so who am I to judge I don't know....I think you could go on any day care forum and see the same reasons/complaints she listed.

This is kind of funny to me because the whole time I was reading the article, I was thinking, "I wonder if the blogger is someone from Daycare.com. Everything she's written sounds so much like many of the vents I've read there!" When I posted my reply, I could only see the op's initial message with the link and daycare's reply saying she thought the provider sounded jaded. I hadn't seen anyone else's comments until now.
I have no idea who the blogger is and I still feel you can go on any child care forum and see providers venting about the same things but I guess, from the sounds of it, I may have been right when I thought the blogger might be someone from this forum!

Its not the subject matter. Its specific words, phrases and the manner in which something is explained. Its very unique.

It might just be something I do but I notice tempo, tone, and the overall grammatical way a person writes and often I can tell who a poster is just by that verses looking at their user name/avatar.

It was definitely the wording and phrasing that seemed so familiar to me and made me think the blogger might be someone from this forum. I still have no idea who it is, though....I can be so dense sometimes!Its not the subject matter. Its specific words, phrases and the manner in which something is explained. Its very unique.

I'm tired of my stuff being taken. Check out this book
Daycare: Busy Parents Guide to Raise Healthy Kids Worry Free (Daycare Management, Childcare, Daycare, Daycare Business, Childcare Books, Daycare Whisperers) https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00PY...aw_ss_kndl_dp/
It's a bizarre book with nonsensical sentences. It looks fake. I can't find ANYTHING on the author. It's three bucks for nine pages and the sentences look like they are jumbled together.
Every time I search my book that book comes up.
I'm over it.

It's Nannyde who sounds familiar to you. The woman in the blog is using her wording and ideas. Sounds like some of the things the blogger is saying may have been taken from what Nannyde posts on here or from her book. I haven't read the book yet (shame on me It was definitely the wording and phrasing that seemed so familiar to me and made me think the blogger might be someone from this forum.

I'm sorry Nannyde! If I'd known it was a copycat I wouldn't have shared it. I thought it was an amusing read, but now I guess we know who the credit really goes to.It's Nannyde who sounds familiar to you. The woman in the blog is using her wording and ideas.

Nannyde, I know it's no consolation, but you know that saying "imitation is the best form of flattery", and we all know, she's copying from the best.

Actually I think its great that you posted it... It brings the subject to light and initiates a conversation about it.... I'm sorry Nannyde! If I'd known it was a copycat I wouldn't have shared it. I thought it was an amusing read, but now I guess we know who the credit really goes to.
Amy, you and I talked about this alot when you were so gracious as to help with my website...
I totally understand working hard to express yourself in your own words.. It is very personal and I get how hurtful and just wrong it is for someone to use that as their own. The article was shared on other sites too and I am sure other readers can make the connect between the two writers as well so... I wouldnt feel bad about posting it at all

)That's such a lousy thing to do! When people do this kind of thing, don't they realize that someone (not me obviously!
) will eventually recognize that it's plagiarized work and that they'll be called out on it? Why would you risk the embarrassment and humiliation? Nannyde, is there anything you can do legally to put a stop to it?

I'm totally late to the party once more, but as I was reading it, I immediately thought "why is this person stealing Nan's stuff?"
midaycare 08:07 AM 01-30-2015
I can never tell who is writing what by posts, so I would never be able to tell ... but why steal someone's stuff? If you are a dcp, you have enough to write about! You don't need to steal.
If it's who I think everyone is referring to, I think I joined here late in that drama. I remember some posts from her, but nothing crazy. I must have missed the good stuff. I usually do. My life is soooo boring.

It must be a midwest thing. When someone gets the right answer, we sometimes say "ding, ding ding.....winner, winner, chicken dinner!" She wasn't hinting about who it was. You can see the authors name on the post, and "coincidentally" she lives in the same town that Nan used to live in. I don't know that she copied the stuff from here. It could have been any where that Nan's stuff is published.......
