I Discovered Our Babysitter Fresh from a Shower While My Husband Was Home, Prompting Me to Activate the Nanny Cam

Yesterday was a whirlwind that left me reeling, and I just have to get this off my chest. It all started when I walked into my house and got a surprise—our babysitter, fresh out of the shower, and my husband was home too, which was odd because he should have been at work.

Let me back up a bit. Between the chaos of our jobs, my husband and I decided to hire a nanny for our little ones. She’s been great up until this confusing moment. I came home early at 6 p.m. and there she was, hair damp and all. She explained that a mishap with spilled milk led her to take a quick shower while the kids were napping. I wasn’t thrilled about it and told her it felt inappropriate to shower at our place. She brushed off my concerns, and then, to my surprise, my husband chimed in, agreeing with her!

I couldn’t shake off a nagging suspicion—why was he even home? His shift wasn’t supposed to end until later. Thoughts of betrayal began to cloud my mind. The next day, I decided to put an old nanny cam back to use, just to see what was really going on when I was not around.

Everything seemed normal the next morning. I set up the camera, kissed the kids, and left for work. But not long after, my phone showed me something that stopped me in my tracks. My husband came back home shortly after I left! I saw him talking with our nanny, and my heart just sank.

I rushed home, claiming I felt sick, but really, I was sick with worry. When I arrived, things looked normal—my husband was cooking, which confused me even more. After a bit of roundabout talk, he came clean. He hadn’t been laid off—he’d been fired a week ago and was too ashamed to tell me. He’d been pretending to go to work, then coming back home to job hunt and help out with the kids.

It turned out, the whole shower incident was just as he and the nanny said. It really was just a spill, and he was there the whole time. I felt a whirlwind of emotions—guilt for not having noticed his stress, anger for being kept in the dark, but also compassion for what he was trying to do, keeping things normal for us.
