Description

Nan has a tricky relationship with her employer, Mrs X.A non-existent relationship with Mr X.But she loves their little boy to pieces.In between looking after four-year-old Grayer and running a thousand errands for Mrs X, his rich, uptight Manhattanite mohter, Nan is trying to have a life. There's college, shopping, her friends, her cat George. And the gorgeous Harvard boy from the sixth floor...But the X family's dramas keep intruding - visits from Mr X's predatory mistress, catastrophic family outings and, as a final straw, the case of the marriage-destroying panties. As Divorce looms, Nan realises how attached she's become to the Xs' unloved son - and how nannying has become more than just a job.Funny, touching and true-to-life, The Nanny Diaries is a modern-day Mary Poppins story - with attitude.
