I didn't want my daughter brought up by nannies, and I didn't want her to feel I wasn't around.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My mother came from a generation that did not want nannies. She had her first child at 24 and her last - me - at 42.
When I'm a mum, I'm not going to be one of those mums who has nannies. Actually, I might have nannies - never say never - but I'm not having someone else raise my kids.
Nannies love working in our house because they never know who's gonna walk through the door.
My mother did not like children.
God bless nannies.
I want a certain thing for my children. I just want to be in their life. I don't want nannies raising my kids.
My daughter is the funniest person I know, and I couldn't imagine my life without her.
My nan was a nursery maid. Most people weren't in big houses. They were maids of all work.
My mum had me brought up by nannies and governesses. I didn't have much to do with my parents until I was 21.
We've never had nannies. We've had great grandparents, great support from family, and the kids have been on every set: they've seen me play Gollum, King Kong, Captain Haddock, the lot. They totally get it, and they want to go into the business. Ruby, my daughter, is very keen to become an actress.
